Do your children complain
about the things they don't have? Do they believe they are not as smart, athletic,
talented, or 'cool' as other kids? Twee' does! Do you ever wish your children
understood how being different makes them unique and special, with their own
gifts to share? Twee' does! Read, I Am Twee' together and share the discovery!
Summary
Twee' is a bit older now, but
is she wiser? In this second picture book-allegory from Susie's "Between
You & Me" series, this young pine tree feels useless because she has
nothing to share. Twee' notices the apple trees in the valley offer many gifts,
which draw children and adults to visit them. However, the people don't even
see Twee', and she begins to wish she were an apple tree. After many seasons,
Twee' is ready to give up, when an unusual event changes her mind. Join Twee'
as she journeys to discover that by being herself and different she has
something special to contribute.

This review is from: I Am Twee'
(Paperback)
Another heartwarming children's book by Susie
Caron.
This book is written beautifully. I confess that
the Between You and Me books are some of the nicest children's books I have
reviewed lately. Written in sweet language, this latest book in the series
teaches children about self-worth and self-acceptance.
Twee is now a grown tree, but wants to be
someone else. It would like to be an apple tree, so it can have beautiful
flowers, much fruit, and happy visitors. Looking at its sticky sap, the pine
tree is angry about its appearance. Twee has no visitors or friends, and no one
climbs its trunk. The unhappy pine tree is taking out her anger on her only
friend, the mountain rock. One day, when a little girl and her mother spot the
pine tree between the rocks, everything changes ...
Following the main character, Twee, children
will learn that each living thing, including human beings, has a purpose in
life and has been placed on this planet for a reason. Without preaching, the
author underlines a very important lesson: the best policy in life is to stay
true to yourself and be your own person. Great lesson to learn and share with
others!

This review is from: I am Twee' (Between
You and Me) (Kindle Edition)
I had a big, fat smile by the time I finished
reading this book. It's so clear to see that the author loves writing books
that go way past the surface and actually impact a child's outlook on the
world.
In this beautiful tale, you'll get to meet Twee
who is a tree stranded on a cliff away from the apple trees. It seems the trees
in the valley have all the attention.
Twee wishes she could be one of them until a
young girl and her mother have a picnic under Twee's leaves and make her
discover that she has something of value to offer. The illustations are
beautifully done and complement the wonderful story.
This will make a wonderful addition to your
child's library and I'd recommend you get a copy today.

Interview:
Why did you write this book?
Over many years of experience as a teacher,
psychologist, wife, mother and entrepreneur, I noticed that children experience
feelings about many things, but they lack enough ‘world view’ to be able to
express those feelings in ways that make sense to themselves and to their
adults. I wanted to write stories that help illustrate some of the issues they
encounter, and to give them a way to talk about their feelings with their
caregivers, teachers and counselors. In the process of reading to children, my
books also allow adults to get in touch with their thoughts and feelings. This
helps them to better understand their children and to connect.
Anything in particular you’d like to
share about this book or its creation?
I
started several books, but didn’t complete them because none of them seemed to
be the “right” book. The ideas for the
books in my “Between You and Me” series came after I quit struggling and prayed
for some guidance. Afterwards, I asked myself, “What do I really want to say?”
I finally realized I wanted to help kids talk with their adults about the
feelings and the situations they experience. Because I believe relationships
are key in everyone’s well-being, it made sense to call the series “Between You
and Me.” Twee’ appeared as an adorable
character who could illustrate how we discover new things about ourselves, and
how that impacts the way we relate to others.

What can we expect to see from you in
the future?
My
third book in the “Between You and Me” series is underway and I hope to release
it in the winter of 2014. I also promote and encourage adults to read aloud to
children and talk about their experiences and feelings. But, I don’t want to
forget the adults in kid’s lives Successful parenting is a big challenge. As a
result I am working on a kindle book for parents.
