Reviews

"""Probably the most difficult task navigating a career in film (or TV) is the amount of real-time one gives to their family. Solid Family Time...yeah SFT! At minimum, it's important from an early age for your children, or perhaps the first few dates with a partner (eventual spouse) to have them understand what it is that you actually do. Jennica walks us through this in a fun and informative way... not for my purposes specifically, if at all, but rather as an illustrated guide for either the artist to reflect or the newcomer to gain insight into this whacky world of make-believe whose goal is to reflect the not so whacky world we live in. Bravo Jen!"" -Corbin Bernsen (Major League, Psych), Actor and Director ""I think I carry a tad bit of bias due to my love of movies but I thoroughly enjoyed this poetry book. I enjoyed getting to see each element of a movie in an illustrative format. Fun exploration through doodle and poetry!"" - Jonathan Tillman, 3rd grade teacher and after-school program film instructor ""I'm so proud of this book. I cannot wait to gift it to everyone I know. Perfect for all ages!"" - The Author's Mom"
