Family connection, music and memory making is what is needed in the world today.
There is no greater gift you can give to a child.
Why I wrote My Lola
My new children’s book celebrates Filipino culture, family, food and music.
Family connection, music and memory making is what is needed in the world today. There is no greater gift you can give to a child.
Inspire and empower your child when the new children's book, My Lola will be launched on the 1st of May 2020.
My Lola is the first book in an inspiring series of music and movement online classes focusing on food, family, music and culture, ideal for parents to enjoy with their young children.
The book is about a young boy’s Lola (Grandmother in the Filipino language) who brings the family together with her delicious Filipino meals. We travel to the market with Lola together with her cute puppy, Gloria. They search for the ingredients she needs to create her delicious meals. Lola and the family cook together family favourites such as Lumpia (spring rolls), Pork adobo and don't forget the rice!
As they share the meal the young boy feels blessed that the family is together, celebrating and enjoying Lola’s home cooked food.
"It is a winner at many levels. Shows values of honesty, authenticity, being grateful and respectful!"
Violi Calvert , Freelance Journalist; Radio Tagumpay Co-Producer and Co-Broadcaster
My vision
My vision is to combine the book with fun online music and movement classes.
There is something special when you combine music and dance with a children’s book, it brings the book to life.
As a family you create memories and at the same time connection. Readers will have the option to join the My Lola online music and movement classes where I will hold a number of lessons to help with the children’s cognitive, physical, emotional and social development. All of this while singing and dancing to original music and some favourite classics.
Apart from introducing children to music such as traditional Filipino folk songs, Jazz, and original music I will also share some of my mum’s filipino recipes featured in the book during the online lessons, one dish would be Lumpia, filipino spring rolls, my son's favourite.
My Lola online music and movement classes lay the perfect foundation for music. The My Lola book is easy to read and features beautiful illustrations that will capture children's attention. The storyline is engaging and will hook readers from start to finish.
The ebook will be available to order here from here and as a token of my appreciation, you will receive a free song download.
