The Love Cure

Inspiration

A friend suggested I enter this contest because she enjoyed my other children's books. Upon losing at the request I loved Emory's request to reduce children's fear. Nothing does more to reduce fear than love.

What it does

This little book attempts to explain cells, the immune system and things that cause disease in simple pictures and words. It then explains how good emotions help the immune system maintain or restore health.

How I built it

I used Apple Pages, Affinity Photo and lots of photographs.

Challenges I ran into

My original idea for a book on the Virus Squad was going to require too many illustrations for me to make the deadline. My favorite illustrator was too busy to do the project.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I feel as if I did manage to get a very big topic reduced to something I hope 6 to 9 year olds can understand and even apply.

What I learned

In doing research on the subject I learned for the first tome about exosomes. I was not taught about them back when I was in school. Quite amazing.

What's next for The Love Cure

If Emory likes it and wants to use it that's wonderful (with or without prize money). If not, then I plan to publish it on Amazon as a free eBook. I am more interested in encouraging love and good health than in making money on this project. I am retired from my job and now work as a scriptwriter and author. I love my grandchildren (who star in the book) and want to leave them a better world.
