       Kaye Tolentino Author Central

SOMETHING ABOUT Kaye Tolentino, a.k.a. Miss Kaye, is a Filipina writer who writes on improving kids’ well-being. In her debut children’s picture book, Guess How Marion Feels, she helps adults support kids in having awareness of others’ emotions including themselves. 

 A book that is dear to her heart because it’s her personal experience of overcoming something that was once her challenge. Miss Kaye KAYE TOLENTINO During a meditation course, she came up with the idea of crafting a book to empower kids especially those with emotional and social cues struggles. She acted on the idea by pitching it to a group invested in self-discovery that is based in Canada. 

The leaders liked the idea resulting in her having a seed fund to kickstart her book project. Despite being dyslexic, you may find her reading in her free time. One of her all- time favourites is the book written by Mitch Albom, The Five People You Meet in Heaven. It was the first book she ever purchased. A book that is about a humble guy who worked as a maintenance guy in a theme park and died upon saving someone while he was on duty. But, before he left the world, he met the five people he directly and indirectly affected each others’ lives. 

 Given her keenest to see more goodness, she is working on improving her writing to better the world.

 Book Blurb: "Look at Marion's face... He is smiling.    His face is bright. His body is relaxed and rested.    Can you guess how Marion feels?"     

Like Pixar’s Inside Out, Guess How Marion Feels helps adults and kids understand emotions BUT without the journey in the brain. 

Using OUR five senses, this interactive book makes learning practical. Increase the child’s awareness of others’ feelings. Also, of their feelings! 

 A picture book approved by science experts, lecturers, and literature experts turns adults into emotion gurus! Help them build the right foundation of emotions because they will be forever grateful to you for having harmonious relationships.

About Jan Hill:

Hi, I am Jan from Australia, thank you for visiting my website. I am a mother of three who grew up with 4 brothers in country Victoria, where the local landscape consisted of dairy farms, abandoned gold mines, rivers and old logging tracks in the mountains where there was an abundance of snakes, rabbits, birds & bats etc.

My husband and I moved from Victoria to Cairns, Queensland in 1980. End of the 90's we bought a property on the Atherton Tablelands where we would escape to on the weekends. As our property was untouched forest, there was an abundance of wildlife.

As I noticed birds coming into the garden, I started putting out sunflower seeds. Before we knew it, during the day Rainbow Lorikeets came, King Parrots, Cockatoo's, Goanna's and occasionally snakes etc. it was so exciting. (For me it definitely was) At night we saw Padymelon's, Eastern Grey Kangaroos, Owls, several varieties of Possums, Night Spiders (Garden Orbs), Pythons and Night Tigers. Watching the way the wildlife interacted with one another inspired the writing of the lorikeets series.

I hope the stories create a window for children to experience and enjoy the antics of the wildlife that were frequent visitors to our garden as much as I did.
