In this book she uses her imagination to tell a story to her little sister Baby Pie and their pet cat Candyfloss about how blood works.''The book All about our Blood by Viola Baxter was a wonderful read. Not only does the book talk about blood cells, it tells us how we can help these blood cells to keep our bodies strong and healthy. By reading this book, children and even adults will understand, in a way that they cannot forget, the functions and importance of our blood cells. The author also educates on us blood groups. Viola did not forget to include descriptive images in this book. I believe that Slindo's love for reading will inspire the readers to feel the same way too'' Chiwelite Obioma Mgbeoji.

Till the Lion Returns
How can young children learn the value of work, integrity, and entrepreneurship? I asked myself that question when my daughter was three years old. I've seen the importance of these principles in my life as an adult, and I wanted to help her absorb them even at her young age. That's where the idea of this story, which is based on the famous "Parable of the Talents" that Jesus once told, was born. It's a story that embraces and expresses financial concepts and the value of work. Till the Lion Returns is a sweet, amusing tale that illustrates the positive results of applying these concepts and values as well as the negative consequences of not doing so. It covers topics of leadership, responsibility, work, observation, patience, and accountability in a natural, approachable way, and it will spark a dialogue that allows parents and children to learn together. -Carlos Enrique Garza, author
