I am happy to announce that Barbara Ayosea Morse and I have just published a companion guide and activity book to go with Tales from Squnch Valley. It is called Adventures from Squnch Valley and is for parents, teachers, and therapists to use with children of all ages. The link to our new book is in our shop. Please check it out, especially if you are working with children or have children of your own.

Tales From Squnch Valley by Barbara Ayosea Morse was released by AuthorHouse Publishing in 2019. Pamela Smith Allen is proud to have been a part of bringing this book to the world!

The book blends fantasy and reality to tell the story of childlike characters called Squnches. They emerge from their shells in a safe, wonderful valley where they grow and develop under the guidance of the Wind and other wise, colorful characters. Eventually, they evolve into loving, compassionate people, ready to leave the valley in bubbles and share their gifts and talents with the world. Children will identify with the Squnches as they face similar developmental challenges in their lives. The eighteen stories are meant to be read aloud to young children up to seven or eight, who may also enjoy acting them out. Children from nine to twelve and older can read the book for themselves but may also enjoy listening to the stories presented as guided imagery exercises that inspire creative expression. Teachers, parents, and therapists will find the stories delightful and useful as teaching tools for all ages.
