Praise for "Millie Finds Her Voice"
“Such a rare gem of a book for primary aged children and those who care for them in creating a safe space. There is a desperate need to have the voices of children who have experienced varied adverse childhood experiences represented in stories today.
High praise for Millie finds her voice; such vibrance and magic that will change the
hearts of its readers."
Jade Sercombe-Ford, Teacher & Author
"Millie Finds Her Voice is one of the most beautifully written and illustrated picture
books I have ever read. This disarmingly simple story of childhood trauma and healing,
told as much through the superb illustrations as through its gentle words, offers both children and adults multiple approaches to start talking about a subject, all too often concealed by silence."
Jo Jensen, Children’s Librarian & Author
