Critical Acclaim for Finders Keepers?

"Sumptuous jewel-toned paintings with Indian motifs...[and] tantalizing travel morsels...engage readers...."

Midwest Book Review

"A truly exceptional picture book treasure to share with young people."  

"Gorgeous illustrations and global message...a wonderful book...teaches multicultural respect, character education skills, self-esteem, tolerance, and cultural awareness...[students] wanted me to read it again immediately after 

I finished."

"A warm and touching tale for a reader of any age. This colorful glimpse into India's diverse landscape, culture, and daily life is bound to delight as well as educate the reader."

"I am sure that my students will enjoy the beautiful illustrations and the opportunity to learn about a culture that is different than their own. The discussion that will occur as a result of the lost wallet will also  provide valuable reflections of our own morality and values."

"Finders Keepers? is a wonderful journey for children....This personal experience provides a meaningful way to better understand people of a different land. The lesson shared transcends all cultures and religions and is needed now more than ever."

"This book really provides a geography lesson, a study in ethics, and a brief insight into Indian culture... I'm in love with the brightly colored illustrations....even the youngest kids enjoy looking at the pictures."

"Your artwork is evocative and very moving and you have a gift for bringing a story to life through pictures."
