Advance Praise

"Kai and the Magic Jacket" comes with a strong message of hope, and is a choice pick for children's picturebook collections seeking something with an Asian flavor."
- Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch (Jan 2013)



"A sweet familial story, beautifully illustrated, that delivers a terrific lesson for your readers."
- Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet.



"Kai and the Magic Jacket depicts the importance and value of family, and that it takes a strong individual to stand up and say "no" to bad influences. If only every child had a magic jacket to help them."
- Penney Gonzalez, Director of Rocky Mountain Montessori



"...the narrative itself feels fresh, and the illustrations are bright and cheerful. Readers may find that the pacing feels rushed in places—several months pass during the course of the narrative, which seems odd for a picture book—but the effect doesn’t overpower the story. Although some of the characters could have been a bit more fully developed, they’re still all distinct enough to carry the story to its conclusion."

-Kirkus Review



"A must read children's book. To all you parents out there looking for a great example to show & teach your children about having a relationship with spirit, ancestors, guardian angels and guides. Kai And The Magic Jacket depicts an exemplary example of how to demonstrate to your children how they can listen, feel and call upon spirit at any given time."
