Book Review
I just had the pleasure of reading your children’s book, Why Me? Why Not You? — Salt and Sugar Want to Switch, and I must say—what an absolute delight! From the captivating title to the vibrant, whimsical illustrations, everything about this book is a feast for the imagination. You’ve created a world that children will want to return to again and again—not only because of its charm but because of its heart.
Your storytelling is playful yet powerful, and the dialogue between Salt and Sugar is hilariously brilliant. The way you made two pantry staples interact had me smiling! Their identity interaction was not only creative but deeply relatable, even for grown-ups—an ingenious way to spark conversations about self-worth, purpose, and embracing what makes us unique.
The illustrations were equally outstanding—colorful, full of personality, and absolutely perfect for drawing children into the message. I loved your addition of words to remember, color pages for the kids, and the way you implemented the recipes. It’s clear that both your words and visuals were crafted with care, love, and a true calling to inspire young minds.
Please don’t stop. Keep pressing forward in this beautiful calling of writing for children. The world needs your voice—bold, funny, uplifting, and full of purpose. Your gift is a rare one, and I’m so excited to see where Salt and Sugar (and your other future characters!) will go next.
Congratulations on a truly special book. May this just be the beginning of many more imaginative, meaningful stories to come!
