And when he starts rhyming, can go on for days. Crowds form when he’s rhyming, they can’t get enough, For he is an expert, no rhyme-scheme’s too tough. He savors the challenge, adores the applause, And he’s grown quite fond of the “oooo’s” and the “ahhh’s”. BUT WHAT IF HIS RHYMING WAS SUDDENLY TAKEN? He might, as a start, find his fan clubs forsaken. He might also find that the gift that he’d lost Might be gained once again, but be gained at what cost? Read on to find lessons and laughs—you’ll find both, And discover how often with loss comes new growth.In a land where magic and rhyme fill the air, the last of the Murrbles — a whimsical, polka-dotted creature — learns a lesson in kindness the hard way. Gifted with the rare talent of speaking in rhyme, the Murrble delights the crowd… until his pride gets in the way and the mysterious Glupp takes his gift away, leaving his spots gray and his words ordinary. As he roams the bustling marketplace, the Murrble finds his once-cheering fans oddly bitter. Could there be more to their sour moods than he realizes? And is there a way to bring color and magic back into his world? The Polka-Dotted Murrble is a clever and heartwarming tale of humility, friendship, and finding magic in second chances. Perfect for kids ages 4–8, this read-aloud favorite is full of rhythm, humor, and just the right sprinkle of whimsy. Includes a surprise ending… with toast and marmalade!

 Book Cover


I Love You So BEARY Much:

A Heartwarming Rhyming Picture Book

for Babies and Toddlers


If you’re looking for a sweet, meaningful book to share with a baby or toddler, I Love You So BEARY Much is definitely one to check out.

This rhyming picture book was created with very young children in mind—perfect for babies, toddlers, and even preschoolers. It features 25 short, heartfelt poems, each paired with a full-spread illustration of a parent animal and their baby. From bears and dolphins to monkeys, owls, hedgehogs, and penguins, every page captures a new animal pair and a different expression of love between parent and child. What makes this book stand out is how simple and soothing it is to read aloud. The rhymes are gentle and short—just a few lines each—making them ideal for little ones with shorter attention spans. It’s a great choice for early bonding, bedtime wind-downs, or even quiet daytime reading. And the consistent format (a new animal and poem on each spread) makes it easy to read one page, several, or the whole book, depending on your child’s mood. The illustrations are vibrant and full of warmth, but they’re not overly busy—which is perfect for engaging babies and toddlers without overwhelming them. The overall tone of the book is tender and affectionate, which many parents will appreciate, especially in those early months and years when expressing love through storytime becomes part of the daily routine. This would make a thoughtful gift for a baby shower, first birthday, or new parents building their child’s first library. It feels like a keepsake book—one that can grow with your child from their earliest days through the toddler years and beyond. If you're in the market for a book that’s sweet, snuggly, and built for repeat reading, I Love You So BEARY Much is a gentle favorite that fits right in.
