It reminded me of my childhood and the simple pleasures of friendships and growing up. It describes hilarious life situations but also emphasizes being responsible for the decisions you make. I can't wait to give copies of this sweet little book to my grandchildren. Fantastic read!” -Trish CarterThe book is available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback formats.Author/Illustrator Charlene Neigum grew up in Saskatchewan, Canada. She thought she might one day become a journalist but ultimately decided writing stories for children would be much more fun. Prior to publishing her first book, Charlene worked with pre-school and school aged children as an Early Childhood Educator. She also spent time writing feature stories and articles for a local lifestyle magazine. In addition to her work as an author/illustrator, Charlene currently works as a communications specialist for a security and investigations company. The Canadian prairies are home to Charlene, her husband, three sons, a dog and a slightly evil cat that is always causing a conundrum.Charlene Neigum can be reached at CharleneNeigumWrites@gmail.com for more information.
