“Teaching children to trust their gut makes this book a must read for children & parents! And it’s an outstanding resource. As parents, teachers, and trusted adults it is our job to empower and educate our children. This engaging book is an important teaching tool that can save a child by letting them know they matter and they have the power within themselves. Think about donating one to your child’s school. That’s my plan!” – Judge Rosemarie Aquilina

Holding multiple degrees in Education and Psychology, and Graduate Certificates in Special Education and School Counseling, Anne serves her community as a School Counselor in rural Western Washington.
