Acclaim for Sara's books.
No Ordinary Apple: "We often hear ourselves telling children to pay attention but we don't often teach children HOW to pay attention. This book does just that and it is deliciously fun to read."--Sharon Salzberg, author of Real Happiness and Lovingkindness
My New Best Friend: "This is an absolutely delightful book that perfectly delivers the message of self-compassion in a way that is fun and easy to understand for kids. Parents who buy this book for their children will be giving them a gift to last a lifetime!”
—Kristin Neff, Ph.D, author of Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself
