Sometimes, when you’re in the midst of a chain reaction, you just have to hold on and enjoy the ride! That’s how it felt when I released Embrace Your Body — the book that was inspired by a song that was inspired by a film that was inspired by another film!
Ok, that’s a little complicated so let me take a step back. After I released the Embrace film, I had dozens of people telling me they wished they’d been exposed to the messages in it when they were a kid. Maybe then, they wouldn’t have spent so much of their lives hating their body.
Of course, I couldn’t agree more, so I set to work creating the Embrace Kids film for 8 to 14 year olds. That film inspired Melbourne teachers-turned-acclaimed-musicians Pevan & Sarah to co-write the Embrace song with me, to help kids find the joy in what their body can do. And THEN, yep, we turned the song into a beautiful book!
Embrace Your Body is a joyful storybook packed with positive messages about our amazing bodies. I have absolutely loved sharing this book with thousands of little legends to help them find the joy they have inside.
Many thanks to @sineadhanley__ for your beautiful illustrations, and my book publisher @penguinbooksaus for backing us all the way.
