The Catcher Dream Tour

Children’s Book

Date Published: 07/29/2022

Publisher: Balboa Press, a division of Hay House, Inc.

“The Catcher Dream” was born as a poem and remains so in this
newly minted Book Five of Kelly Anne Manuel’s Childhood Classics.

In this story the Child is invited on a journey where self-empowerment is
modeled through an interaction between the narrator and a fictionalized
character known as the Catcher Dream.

This is a story where the narrator models strength and courage once an
uncomfortable matter is identified through self-assessment.

“The Catcher Dream” offers a standing invitation to the Child.
The Child will learn that they are individuals in charge of safeguarding
their physical and emotional space. It is an example of how imperative it is
to process the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that uncomfortable matters
provoke.

The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair
perfectly with their presentation. The Child will observe illustrations that
are in alignment with the serious tone of the story. It is important that
the art match the conflict presented and resolved by the narrator.

The narrator shows the Child that once a boundary was encroached upon,
speaking up in a firm manner provided a solution. Children learn how to
handle conflict by observation. It is important for their literature to
address a balanced yet firm approach to conflict resolution.

The author intends this book to be a launch pad for discussions about
personal space, respect, and boundaries. These are all areas that deserve to
be explored frequently as the Child ages. It is in Early Childhood that
futures are being constructed.

“The Catcher Dream” is a tool in a Caregiver’s toolbox to assist
with that healthy formation. The idea that self-empowerment is formed during
these early years is embraced by the author.

The Children who read this book will be rewarded with a valuable lesson
that facing fears results in the positive trait of resilience.

EXCERPT

So my dear reader it was then that I saw,

a little light peaked out from under its claw

No matter I thought and then said with a shout;

don’t ever come back

but do sort yourself out

he sees colours differently from other children in the class. He is

The World Small Virtual Book Tour

Children’s Book

Date Published: 07/22/2022

Publisher: Balboa Press, a division of Hay House, Inc.

“The World Small” was born as a poem and remains so in this newly
minted Book Two of Kelly Anne Manuel’s Essentials Series. In this story the
Child is invited to experience their sleep time ritual with the comfort of
Nature nearby.

It is a remarkable combination of relaxation yet imagination igniting
prose. “The World Small” offers a standing invitation to the
Child. The Child will learn that no matter where they are on the planet,
Nature has common elements. She is always available for discovery and
wonder.

In the story Nature is personified as a unifying presence to our planet.
The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair perfectly
with their presentation. The illustrations spark curiosity as they start
with a map and end with the evening sky. The story identifies common
elements such as the sky, sun, clouds and rainbows, to create continuity for
any number of environments.

Children who begin their sleep time ritual with “The World Small”
will benefit from the rhythm of the words and the message they send. The
message that how Children play and enjoy the world around them no matter
their geographic location is designed to awaken curiosity and stimulate
conversations on the topic. It is in Early Childhood that a Child’s view of
the world and their place in it is under major construction.

“The World Small” is a tool in a Caregiver’s toolbox to assist
with that healthy formation. The idea that we are united as a global
community with elements of Nature and human nature is an important message
that the author feels Children’s literature must reflect. The Child who
reads this book will be rewarded with unlimited travels into imagination and
how they would like to play once they arrive there.
