Editorial Review


An “intimate story about the lasting connections love creates.”

  • - Danielle Ballantyne, Foreword Reviews




Unwrapping Some Illustrations for You


















The Book





Tess is a little girl who lives in a very loving family.  They are bound tightly together by their love.  When she leaves for her first day of school she is worried that the love she feels won't go with her and she will be separated from them.   Luckily she has a very wise teacher who guides and helps her with her feelings of detachment.  She discovers that she can create similar feelings with her teacher and other classmates until her mother once again returns to pick her up.  She realizes that love connects her no matter how far apart she is from her loved ones.  

This book is both informative and inspiring to little ones.  The illustrations are a very strong force in reinforcing the message of the strength and the power of love.  I highly recommend this book.

About the Illustrator





Kirsti Beautyman works from her studio in Newcastle Upon Tyne, using a range of mediums to build layers of texture and detail which are combined digitally to create her illustrations.
