Book Review
Boston You're My Home is an inspirational story about all that the beautiful city of Boston has to offer.
Sweet Caroline and her family are moving and she is afraid to move to the city. Her parents share a special bedtime story with her giving her ten reasons that make Boston the perfect place to call home. Will it be enough to convince her to move?
Boston You're My Home is a wonderfully written and charmingly illustrated story that takes readers on a tour through Boston. Children will discover amazing places like the Hatch Shell, The Emerald Necklace, Castle Island, and so much more. However, just as Sweet Caroline learns, the most impressive part of Boston are the remarkable people who live there and the strong bond they share.
I highly recommend picking up a copy of Boston You're My Home.
Available on Amazon and Mascot Books.

"The Beantown Tales are wonderful books with themes about clean water and air, endangered wildlife protection, and humanitarian kindness. Written and imagined by Suzie Hearle Canale and her 2 little boys! I sat next to her at a book signing recently and who would not be drawn to books with titles such as “The Land of the Chocolate Cosmos” and “The Popcorn Hydrangea of Poppington”?! Gardening and candy, a great combination for kids! Can’t wait to give these books to some special kids I know…"

The Candy Roses of Cape Care
~Written by Suzie Hearl Canales
~Illustrated by Kevin Coffey
The Candy Roses of Cape Care by Suzie Hearl Canales is an inspiring story about the importance of preserving the ocean, our "most cherished and precious resource, that covers seventy percent of our earth."
The story takes place on the Island of Cape Care which is home to rare and precious flowers known as "Candy Roses." These magical roses have no ordinary bloom, but one with a tasty candy treat. The Island of Cape Care has the cleanest oceans and the "Candy Roses" flourish. People came from miles around to fill their buckets with delicious candies. Unfortunately, along with people comes garbage and soon the beaches are contaminated. The roses no longer produced their mystical treats and the island children are very sad. One group of children feel so much sorrow at the loss of their beautiful beach, but instead of pouting they decide something must be done. Can the children rally the island people and save the "Candy Roses?"

The Land of Chocolate Cosmos Review

The Land of Chocolate Cosmos
by Suzie Canale
The Land of Chocolate Cosmos by Suzie Canale teaches children (and adults) the importance of conserving and recycling in order to save our natural resources.
In the Land of Cosmos a magical flower grows. The flower, called chocolate cosmos, turns everything to chocolate because of "a spell within its scent." The town is well known for the delicious chocolate treats made from the flower. But, because of their greed the town fails to listen to one smart boy named Coco, who sees all their waste and disregard for the precious flowers. Soon the chocolate cosmos began to disappear along with their enchanted scent. Will Coco be able to help the townspeople learn to conserve and save what remains of the chocolate cosmos?
Suzie Canale uses clever rhyme to engage young readers and to communicate her important message of appreciating nature and protecting our resources before they are gone.

"I believe both "The Land of Chocolate Cosmos" and "The Popcorn Hydrangea of Poppingtom" will succeed in helping the youths of the United States learn about the importance of preservation and conservation. A highlight for me I would have to say is the page in the back devoted to the actual plant that inspired the story. Including that really helped to tie in the fantastical elements of the story with the world around us. I also applaud your ability to rhyme, you have quite a talent.
