An honest story of one boy’s journey from grief to acceptance.

As a grandparent, President of a Philanthropic Foundation and 50 year psychotherapist I would highly recommend that you buy The Mirror Box for your child, grandchild or their friends as a gift. It so sensitively addresses the largest taboo in our culture the death of a relative without dogma, blind belief and with the perfect heartfelt message and wisdom. It answers how do you keep someone you love alive when they die without having to give normal platitudes or black and white answers. Every child from 5 years old on would benefit from holding these thoughts and images at a time of great need. It also is an equally great message well before any loss occurs. For the many that are looking for the sensitive grounded way to address the subject, you will find this book appealing to guide you, no matter your age.

“Wade embraces the challenges facing our young children today and through his writing he helps with the transformation that many children need and have the power to do within themselves.  Being present and able to understand one’s emotions is how mindful children approach life.  Thank you Wade for sharing this book with all of us.”

“A fabulous book that introduces children to the essence of being mindful and living in gratitude, positivity, and connection.”

Marni Becker-Avin

“This wonderful book helps young readers learn about mindfulness and the power of their breath.  By recognizing it, they’re then able to calm their fears and worries.  The way he illustrates the natural joy that children and animals exude is marvelous and powerful!  This is truly a terrific book for young readers everywhere!”

Erin Taylor

“I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with this delightful and also peacefully calming new story book, The Bird Ride. I loved how it took us all on the bird ride through the author’s words. The book has a really nice calming rhythm to it and I really felt like I was up in the air and soaring over the world with the main character and Blue Bird. It has a wonderful message about mindfulness, noticing and gratitude. The illustrations are really bright and colorful and really add to the text. I love that an emerging young artist was chosen to bring the author’s words into color.

I think the book is perfect for grade schoolers up through 4th grade but would encourage people to share with their tweens, too, even if they think they are ‘too old’ for picture books.”

“The Bird Ride takes children on a ride that playfully introduces them to the power of awareness!  A valuable lesson that will serve both themselves and others.”

Isabella Lambauer

“The Bird Ride is such a beautiful visual depiction and written tale of a boy’s journey to empathy, connection, self-awareness and more presence in life!  Understanding emotions is a powerful tool for children of young ages and beyond and I wholeheartedly recommend this book to any families, caregivers and more who could use a new perspective on life’s precious moments in each day!”
