Thanks for mentioning my podcast on your show :) You’re right, Mark, this book would be a perfect recommendation for my listeners. I just ordered myself a copy and can’t wait for it to arrive.

This is a great book! Sarah Ackerley is very talented as an artist and author. We had Sarah show her illustrations and read to kids at our gallery. The kids loved it!
