Excerpt from Edith Ann Marie The Sun is in My Heart- Chapter One - Grandma's Flower

"I tasted my tear once and it tastes like salt. Grandma says the ocean tastes like salt.  "How can we be like the ocean, Grandma?"   

And Grandma says, "Edith Ann Marie, we are like all things in nature. We have the warmth of the sun in our hearts and the wind in our lungs. The moon is our internal clock and we are full of the richness of the Earth." And then she says more. "The trees give us oxygen, the plants give us food, and the animals give us friendship. We are like the Earth and we get help with life from the Earth."

Reviews

"Edith Ann Marie is a heartwarming story of the precious bond a little girl has with her own grandmother. The simple stories that instill value and encouragement are enough to empower a child’s infinite magnitude to imagine and grow. What are truly special are the moral lessons which the readers will take with them upon reading this hardback. Not your typical feel-good picture book, the conflicts in the stories are believable and presented in a subtle style while ingraining a kind of insight, which brings us to believe that persecution can come in many ways even within the family. Edith Ann Marie represents a child with the insatiable desire to explore and identify with everything life hands her, and we should all be so blessed to have a grandmother who is as lovingly supportive as hers.

Obviously the product of a labor of immeasurable love, the unconventional illustrations included on every page were carefully done with such an endearing charm. Filled with anecdotes about devotion, protection, understanding and nurturing, Edith Ann Marie makes for a great hand-me-down gift for the most important women in your life." - Kaye Cloutman San Francisco Book Review
