The 12 Gifts of Bookmas 〰️
This year, I’m celebrating the season with The 12 Gifts of Bookmas—a collection of books for children and adults, perfect for inspiring readers, writers, and artists of all ages. These gifts are books or series that I either had the privilege of working on or titles written and illustrated by friends and colleagues. Happy Holidays!
Day 1: Dots & Spots
This book has a special place in the Green Typewriter Creative library as it was the first book sold when I went out on my own as a book producer. https://amzn.to/4rrlKWw
Day 2: Christmas Gnomes
It’s a gnome! It’s a touch-n-feel board book! It’s the perfect holiday decor! Whether they are trimming the tree, singing carols, or baking sweets, the five gnomes are a merry little crew. https://amzn.to/4ogaCJ7
Day 3: Typewriter Journal
This book was the first Amazon’s KDP self-publishing title I created. Featuring colorful interiors, vintage typewriters, and vibrant lined pages, this is the perfect notebook for any type of person who wants to record their thoughts, make to-do lists, jot down notes, or write poetry, short stories, or a novel. https://amzn.to/4ordR0C
Day 4: Steam Train Dream Train, Next Stop Christmas
This one is for the fans of trains and Christmas! On the dream train, the workers know their tasks by heart, for when each new December starts, the Christmas Train takes to the air, transporting magic everywhere. https://amzn.to/48EfUcW
Day 5: Baba’s Gift
My friend and colleague Christina Amini, and her sister, wrote this beautiful picture book as a tribute to their father. A perfect read-aloud for parents, grandparents, and teachers, the story inspires curiosity about other cultures and connection between generations. https://amzn.to/49KDTbu
Day 6: Site Hanukkah Lights + My First Books of Jewish Culture
A few of my favorite Jewish books that make great holiday gifts. https://amzn.to/4iwxIdy https://amzn.to/49LDO7k
Day 7: Tiny T. Rex
He may be tiny, but he is mighty! I acquired this book while I was at Chronicle Books, and 6 years after publication, it hit the New York Times Bestseller list this past year! https://amzn.to/4pBieak
Day 8: Chicka Chicka Workbooks
These two educational and entertaining workbooks are delightful additions to the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom series. https://amzn.to/3M5zR3F https://amzn.to/49KfR09
Day 9: STEM Baby
Babies and toddlers are natural-born scientists. Whether rolling a ball down a slope, stacking blocks and knocking them over, placing toys in a container, grouping and matching objects into categories, stacking rings according to size, stringing large beads, or throwing their stuffies, STEM Babies are always experimenting with something new.
Day 10: Books for Mom

Day 12: Oasis Pages
I had the pleasure of working with Grace Welker on this inspiring guided journal for teens. Many teens want to keep a diary or journal but aren’t sure what to write about or where to start. Oasis Pages: Teen Writing Quest provides the road map for a personal writing habit. https://amzn.to/4itXHCc
