The Tiger Like Me
by Kelsey Lee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Children's
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
This
is the story of Abhi, a brave young girl who dares to be different. As she
follows the call of her adventurous spirit, she encounters inspiring creatures
of the jungle who remind her to face her fears, recognize the beauty of the
present moment, and walk the path less travelled.

EXCERPT ONE:
Mom
always tells me, “You need to slow down, and dress up like a princess, wearing
your crown.”
Silly
Mom, if only she knew. I don’t want to be pretty, and part of the queue. I have
so many adventures to create and pursue.
I’d
rather be wild and do things that shock her, than dress up in a gown, feeling
improper.
Abhi’s
my name, and adventure’s my game. My heart is open and it cannot be tamed.
Whatever
the quest, I’m up for the mission. Limitless wonder, or focused expedition.

GUEST POST:
Putting Yourself on a Page: What It’s Like to Share Your Most
Personal Words with the World
Anytime
we share a creative project with others or with the world, we are opening
ourselves to vulnerability, and it takes great courage to be vulnerable. As
Brene Brown so eloquently put it, "vulnerability is not winning or losing.
It's having the courage to show up when you can't control the outcome." At
times, fear and resistance hold many of us back (myself included) when sharing
our ideas or creative projects. This aversion is often rooted in doubts about
how others will respond to our open-hearted expression. Putting our work out
into the world is the ultimate exposure, and thus equates to ultimate
vulnerability.
When
I wrote The Tiger Like Me, I wanted to share a character that inspires
courage, curiosity, and individual expression, while acknowledging the value of
diversity and friendship. This is what the main character, Abhi, and the book
as a whole represent. As humans, we are all individuals from different places,
appearing in various shapes, sizes, colors, and personalities. Yet, we are the
same because we are all beings of this Earth. I know my heart and my truth
stand in love while sharing these perspectives with the world, how others
perceive my view is none of my business.
