The book…. How To Love & Be Loved
An illustrated, practical guide to finding ways to connect with life and feel loved.
“The book is happy, fun and it works! Mikyla has a special gift for creating drawings that ‘speak’. Her drawings tell us things that words can’t. She has a rare gift and is every bit as good as Quentin Blake and Charlie Macksey. A female ‘answer’ to them.” Mary Nayler
