Adventures of Groccolli

The first rule of writing a children's book is: don't write a children's book! Unless you've raised children as a parent or guardian, and then it doesn't matter whether you failed at it or succeeded. Today's children are the parents, leaders and managers of tomorrow; therefore, you want to use your writing to make a positive impact on their development.Young ones often enjoy bedtime stories, and historically, it has always been an effective way to put their curious minds to rest before they doze off at the end of an active day. As caretakers (and that's what parents and guardians are), we need to embrace each moment. Bedtime stories promote a child's mental and social development in a subtle but effective way, not just by letting them finish their day with a smile on their face. It is also a creative way to help them absorb moral values. So, read your child a bedtime story as regularly as you can!With this in mind, please allow me to present Groccolli to your child.What on earth is Groccolli?
