As we all know, kids don’t lie, sometimes we wish they would. If they don’t like the food, or the clothes or the toy, or the book …
They tell you!
At our Pop Up Shop, on the eve of our launch, one of our first young customers took a copy of the book and asked if she could go off into a corner to read it. She ran away enthusiastically with her little sister in tow to find a quiet reading nook. We were busy meeting and greeting our guests and had forgotten about her departure. When she and her sister returned they had a look of resolve on their faces. Without any fanfare or gratuitous flattery but with a sincere expression in her eyes, she simply declared ….
“It’s Good”
Our book is being given rave reviews from our little readers!
They have written us notes and cards and given us so many genuine compliments.
For some, the book is a constant companion! Others have memorized the story and they recite it on their own. They sing the song and refer to Luki as a friend.
Now, we are not parents and we have been reminded that there is no love like a parents love and we don’t claim to know this love
… but this feeling…
we have never known this feeling before.
It starts deep in our hearts or is it the belly? Our eyes get all moist and our legs feel like jelly…
Knowing that our story is seeping into the hearts of children, is provoking them to reflect and question and identify with Luki's journey…
THIS IS PRICELESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS………
We are grateful for any and all feedback from you and your kids … including photos of you and your kids reading The Butterfly Trap, working in the coloring book, or anything else related to the song, story etc…
Keep ‘em coming!
