Joe Garrick's Children's Books

Yes, the whole thing rhymes. Maybe, it’s a book for children; maybe it's a children’s book for parents. Either way, your kid will learn something. Hopefully, it’s the ABC’s. Shouldn’t you have fun while you are teaching your kids something? 

 This is a witty and fun book about all of the different flavors of bagels! Yes, each bagel is also a character! The book rhymes from start to finish and is meant to entertain the person reading it as well as the little one learning to read.

Billy the Dentist is a special project I did for a friend of mine who is a dentist in South Florida. This is a short book that is made to encourage your little one about going to the Dentist. 

Dino Might is all about what the Dinos "might' do if they were still around! This book is an easy read with incredible illustrations! Oh yeah, like all of my other books, this one rhymes from start to finish!

 Growing up can be challenging for everyone, especially when we feel different."Let's face it, no two people are the same(even Identical twins), which means we are all different. We all have insecurities, including us adults. Most of these insecurities start when we are kids. They may come from how we look, how we sound, a condition we were born with, our family(or lack of one), where we grew up, what we were taught to believe, or a whole other list of things. We are all dealt a different hand in life; some are easier than others. 

I wanted to make a book that would make those who have been dealt a more difficult hand feel like there was a book out there that represented them and accepted them for who they are while being a resource to help build self-esteem. At the same time, I wanted to make a book that could help those dealt the easier hand in life learn how to be kind, have empathy, and accept those who are not like them. So I did my best to strike a balance with "It's Okay To Be You" and to help everyone feel comfortable in their skin.

This book is simple, a great resource for kids, and I hope that this will serve as a reminder to adults to help to teach kindness and acceptance.
