The gentle coupling of childhood nostalgia and every parent s wish for their little treasures. A simple yet captivating narrative for both the child and the reader alike. Dear Maggie began merely as a very sporadically written poem, which transformed into letters from the author to her young daughter throughout a period of immense mum-guilt .

The gentle coupling of childhood nostalgia and every parent s wish for their little treasures. A simple yet captivating narrative for both the child and the reader alike. Dear Maggie began merely as a very sporadically written poem, which transformed into letters from the author to her young daughter throughout a period of immense mum-guilt . Having just relocated with her tiny family to the vibrant metropolis of Dubai from the laid-back coast of South Australia with a five-month-old baby in tow, Maggie s mum soon came to realise that this transition brought with it many waves of emotion. Whilst still adjusting to this new life as a full-time mum (for now), there was a notable absence of both friends and family the village, as they say. Mum and Dad began to wonder if the decision they had made for their family was the right one hello, mum-guilt on new levels! Whilst the desire to captivate and inspire little ones with this poetic piece prevails, Dear Maggie also serves, with careful intention, as a touching reminder to the reader (namely, the parents) that regardless of your location, how many toys they have, your financial status, or indeed who you have around you, every child is a magical blank canvas waiting to be decorated by life in all its true colours. That vulnerability, the wondrous discoveries, and the two-way unconditional love all remain constant. So too does the wish of every parent for their child: to experience life with the purest of joy in the simplest, most naturally beautiful ways.
