“I read Lillian’s book on a plane trip and having a few hours up my sleeve, I found myself lost in a wonderful world of imagination. Everything on and in this Earth having a reason to be and having a name. What a delight, what a beautiful soul Lillian is and projects this into her stories.
I recommend reading this magical book of tales and get lost in days gone by when the world was a nicer place to be in. You will close the book with a smile on your face and a feeling of just emerging from a wonderland. Well done Lillian, I love your mind and stories you share with us.” -Ailsa, Australia

Lillian cracks me up!!! This year for her multicultural project she chose hieroglyphics and for one of the genres she chose to write a letter. I explained to her last night that it needed to match the period and not mention modern stuff. Just got done reading it! Awesome! Next we translate it into hieroglyphics using this cool website we found!
“Dear Winterius,
Hi there Winterius! I am bringing over your cow that I had borrowed in November through March. Even though it’s May I’m making my way over to your temple. Tell your mother I’m coming. It just happened that my animals had run away so I’m wondering if you can help me work. Is that okay with you? In fact, it’s the whole reason I’d borrowed your cow for. I’m very sorry that I didn’t tell you before because it’s so unusual for the animals to disappear. Are you married to anyone yet? You are 12. You should be married to a man named Sirius because he knows about all laws and is the pharaoh so you’ll be the pharaoh so when you leave for any dead pharaoh in any area to make a pyramid.
Your Egyptian Friend,
Lilawintercoric
P.S.
I love having you at my temple! Bye now!”

Lillian gives an update regarding the book.

Another step done!! Bar code and graphic purchased and generated. There are a massive amount of steps to this entire process. Some of which can be skipped to get it done more quickly.
Yet, I prefer to take all of the same steps, fill out all the forms, and do as much as possible as if this was being published by one of the big dawgs! Loving Kindness Books may be a small team of three (Team TLC) but we sure don’t have to look like it! Onward!!! xoxo
