Available Now!
Moontree Books is working with Emily Carrier of Emily Carrier Illustrations, www.emilycarrier.com, to pair our stories with gorgeous pictures. We expect to produce a minimum of three books this year. I Spy the Mighty Moon, available now, is the first of a two-part series; with Super Moon Surprise, the second in that sequel, available in late 2017. We released I Am My Lightest Light; A Children's Yoga Book in August of 2017. All of our stories will eventually be available in English and Spanish. We are excited to bring the Moontree characters and stories to life by getting them into the hands and hearts of children in the Low Country and beyond.
I Spy The Mighty Moon
I Spy the Mighty Moon is a story about Sister's transition journey from Momma and Daddy’s house in an urban setting to “Other-Daddy’s” far-away country-home and back again. The moon and a special friend, Lou-Doll, help ease anxieties and fears as Sister negotiates two distinct homes. Ultimately, the uncertain experience of sharing a childhood between two families becomes safe and inviting. The steadfast moon symbolizes unconditional love and watches over Sister as she travels between her two homes.
Super Moon Surprise
Super Moon Surprise, a sequel to I Spy the Mighty Moon, explores family complexities as Sam offers readers a sibling perspective during visitation transitions. Sam finds life without his sister lonely but demonstrates resilience through different coping behaviors.
Sam is inspired by a gift from Sister teaching him to connect through giving. Little readers enjoy a heartfelt journey with Sam and his steadfast friend, Blue Bear, as they discover how to maintain a sibling connection while Sister is away.
I Am My Lightest Light; A Children’s Yoga Book
I Am My Lightest Light; A Children’s Yoga Book takes readers, little yogis, and their teachers through a series of basic yoga poses encouraging healthy form, playful fun, and personal expression. Readers learn present-moment awareness, relaxation, and controlled movement as they balance, breathe, and stretch. I Am My Lightest Light concludes with a final relaxation pose, which includes a guided imagery inspiring active imagination and identity with calm, peaceful Light.
