Children's Fiction

A young eight-year-old girl discovers life, the meaning of love, and loss, and change… A Father guides his daughter through an awakening to life's hardest but unending cycle. Ariana Overton's first children's book is a personal piece, beautifully conceived and enhanced with photos that pull the reader into an adventure with nature. Not only is the story a lesson in living, but a metaphor for life. Little Roo and her kind caring father share in the small joys of being a family. The two teach one another the reality of life's disappointments as a small fuzzy caterpillar guides them to realize the gifts they have been given. Young readers will gain a subtle lesson in caring for the world around them, and some warm fuzzies from the love between a parent and child.
