Congratulations to Anne P. Roda and Advocate illustrator Mona Meslier Menuau on the release of The Mysterious Gift! Anne’s newest children’s book helps give young children confidence in their own unique talents and gifts.
About the book: “You may think being a child in a royal family is all fun and games, but KayTee, the youngest child in the Royal Rose family, would strongly disagree. While her brother and sisters get to play croquet, ride horses, and go to parties, KayTee is cast aside. Until one day, KayTee decides to embark on her own adventure in the forest. There, she meets an elder who claims she has just what KayTee needs.”
