‘How can I explain all the wishes I have for you, when there are piles and piles, enough to fill a universe… or two.’

Think whimsical heart explosions painted in kisses and cuddles, hot air balloon rides with animal friends, and stars springing from big friendly giant shoes. Think universe gazing, dancing in muddy puddles, and exploring through fields of wildflowers.

My Wishes For You has been carefully written and illustrated by two Mamas who live in the sunny Nelson / Tasman region of New Zealand, and are hugely passionate about bringing joy to little ones.

Recommended for children 1-4 but loved by all ages.

A story designed to make little ones feel special, cherished, and so, so loved.

Intricately drawn watercolour illustrations meet an adventurous journey of magical rhyme. My Wishes For You provides an opportunity to connect with your little one as you lead them through a trail of star-filled wishes – made just for them.

What does a child need more than anything else, as they grow and learn amongst this big wide world?

To feel loved. Well, at least, that’s what we think.

Sometimes, parents and special people in a child’s life find it difficult to express their feelings. Sometimes, they get caught up in a constant state of ‘busy-busy’ and forget to slow down. This picture book provides a wonderful platform to pause, share and connect, and let little ones know just how truly loved they are. It’s a guaranteed heart warmer, aimed to bring moments of joy to both the little and big people in your life.
