Just Be You - Press

COLORADO AUTHOR, ANN LOUISE RAMSEY, DEBUTS NEW CHILDREN’S BOOK IN DURANGO!

Just Be You (2008)
Honey is a Cocker Spaniel who thinks she's a duck…because that’s what she's been told by the "others"…who just happen to be ducks! But secretly, Honey asks, "Who can I tell that I am not what you see?" and the mirror replies, "You can tell me!" Share Honey's delightful journey of self-discovery in Ann Louise Ramsey's magical children's picture book Just Be You.

Bursting with joy and guaranteed to bring a smile to young and old alike, Just Be You reminds us of the importance of loving and honoring ourselves.

And, don’t miss this 2007 winner….Me, the Tree
Struggling to know its true self, one lone pine cone, in a forest of many, searches for an open meadow "where no tree lived before" in order to become the magnificent pine tree that lives within. Through "patient believing" this tiny pine cone fulfills its destiny as a tree and ultimately falls in love with all of life in Ann Louise Ramsey’s children’s picture book Me, the Tree. Follow the birth of a pine tree in this poetic parable about self-realization as this little pine cone with deep blue eyes embarks on a fanciful journey from seedling to adulthood.

This insightful tale of self-motivation and belief in oneself comes to life through enchanting images that capture nature's beauty and gentle simplicity. Inspiring and uplifting, Me, the Tree connects readers with life itself through validation of our own individuality and serves to remind us of the divinity that lives within us all.

Winner of a 2007 EVVY Book Award (Colorado Independent Publishers Association), Ann's first book, Me, the Tree, has planted the seed of what promises to grow into a very tall tree for this innovative author/illustrator from Colorado.

About the Author
Colorado artist, photographer, musician, animal lover and poet, Ann Louise Ramsey, has been gaining recognition with her children's picture books, animal artistry, and greeting cards. She lives with her Cocker Spaniel, Honey, in western Colorado where she devotes much of her time to writing, photography, computer graphics, and artwork. In her free time she enjoys camping in the mountains and playing her fiddle with friends.

After twenty years performing music in a variety of venues, she can now be found entertaining others with book readings and sharing her creative ideas on computer graphics, writing and publishing. Venues – ranging from book stores, classrooms, and libraries to special interest groups – all serve as inspired settings for Ramsey to share her artistic vision and passion for creating picture books with children and adults alike.
