This story book is written by Tina Martin for her daughter Taylor, who is the illustrator. "e;Spend a day with my best friend Lauren and me. Giggle a little, laugh a lot, and have a good timesharing all our fun!"e;~ Taylor MartinA note for teachers and parents: This book is best for the imaginative young reader transitioning intochapter books and beginning to learn conversational text. Learning how to write or read conversationaltext can be confusing for a young reader. The chapters are short and more suitable to a young reader's attention. We want children to enjoy the speed of the read. Also, the dialogue for Taylor and Lauren, the two main characters, is color-coded to make it easier toidentify the speaker in each conversation. From Tina Martin: "e;The book's creativity is in the lovable art hand-drawn by my daughter, Taylor. I know your little ones will enjoy Taylor's and Lauren's adventures - and learn something too!"e;"e;Tree of Life is a delightful read for children and adults. It is loaded with meaning, values, principles,and the wonder of a young girl who KNOWS she is loved and that Mom and Dad are always in hercorner, mind, and heart. This book should be followed by many more. Just terrific!"e;~ Norma J.
