    About this ebook

    Learn about how you should never judge a book by its cover with “Mittens & Klaus” nor should you pass up an opportunity to help someone. Then buckle yourselves in for a whirlwind of an adventure as “Alyssa the Adventurer” introduces herself and the vast world of talking toys she visits every day. But don’t get upset because the ride’s almost over, “Imaginary Friend” brings the book to a close with lesson in why individual creativity is important to not discredit.

Lauren is an experienced prolific procrastinator who’s outwardly an introvert but if you mention one of her favorite television shows then her inner extrovert makes an entrance with reading glasses on and long list of sudden talking points.
