Reviews
The Lucky to Live in... series was awarded 2017 BOOK OF THE YEAR from Creative Child Magazine in the interactive memory book category.

..the real magic is a refreshing use of art — whether it’s the eye-grabbing photos of “The Wise Animal Handbook” or the clever illustrations of “Lucky to Live in…” — coupled with Jerome’s “you haven’t read this before” poetry aimed at the young crowd. That both books are “Read Together, Do Together” projects set in a sturdy large-format hardcover binding means that the $16.99 cover (steeply discounted by several booksellers) is worth the price of admission. These are books both you and your 4-year-old will treasure two decades hence. Watauga Democrat

“This work, I quickly discovered, is an intriguing twist on scrapbooking fundamentals. The magic in her work is the book’s composition. Kate’s style elicits and creates a dialogue between the parent (and other adults) and the child. For example, the child just does not by rote fill in the blanks to questions such as where do you live? Rather she raises the idea of their roots.” Zebra
