How Perfectly You! is a children’s book with a important message, that in the same way we are all different, there are many ways to be special and smart. The book relates how on a family camping trip, with the help of Mom, Dad, and their lovable pooch Peabody, sisters Chloe and Banger realize that being different is just fine. Though it has a serious message, the tale is fun filled, and awash with bright, vibrant images, as well as winsome animals that children are bound to fall in love with. In addition to the aforementioned Peabody, an endearing golden retriever, is Pumpkin, a small, speckled songbird that Chloe befriends. This is a book that appeals “to all small people, and to the big people who read to them,” as illustrator Pamela Cinnamon put it.This book, according to Beth McCarthy Marks, came from “a little seed thought of wanting kids to like being just who they are.” It wasn’t easy making this idea a reality, however. This release comes as the result of much effort on behalf of both the book’s creators and Okanagan Publishing House, and the process has taken nearly a year. Though an accomplished writer, this was Mark’s first venture into children’s books, her previous works taking the form of plays and poetry. And while Pamela Cinnamon is well respected in local art circles and a long time member of the Jasper Artists Guild, illustrating this project was a first for her as well.Though this children’s book was a first for the author and illustrator, you wouldn’t be able to tell. A lot of work was put into How Perfectly You!, and it shows in the finished product. A 28 page paperback with a glossy cover and a clean, minimalist design, the book itself is beautiful to look at. “We’re really pleased with how it turned out” Jadon Ward, who oversaw the book’s production, said. “At Okanagan Publishing House our goal is to create books that not only contain art, but are art, from cover to cover. I think we can honestly say we accomplished that with this product.”Bring home this tale of fun and acceptance today, available in either soft-cover or ebook format!
