Author Description

A spilled snack. A toppled tower. A crayon gone just a little outside the lines. In Zuzu & Lulu's World: Oops! It's Okay, one small "oops" at a time becomes a big opportunity to grow. Zuzu is a little boy with big feelings, and when things don't go as expected, those feelings sometimes feel too big to hold. With gentle guidance from his parents-and a curious little sister named Lulu-Zuzu learns that mistakes are part of life, and feelings don't have to take over. He doesn't have to be perfect. He just has to be himself. This beautifully illustrated picture book offers comfort, validation, and emotional tools for children navigating frustration, sensory overload, and sibling dynamics. Inspired by the author's experience parenting a neurodivergent child, it speaks directly to families walking similar journeys-with compassion, humor, and hope. Perfect for children ages 3-7, Oops! It's Okay is a heartfelt addition to any home, classroom, or therapist's shelf-helping little ones (and their grown-ups) breathe through the hard moments, together.
