Giveaway with author Allie MacPhail!
Sandee Macgregor / July 16, 2021
If you can’t sleep or know anyone that struggles, I Can’t Sleep by Allie MacPhail is the perfect prescription mixed with words and illustrations to gently and strategically allow much needed sleep to come. If you have ever felt different than others, sad, lonely, confused or depressed, Sammy the Snail is a literary pathway to recognizing the beauty of just how special and worthy you are right now! I can’t recall how many times I have read these books to my kids and have utilized the concepts creatively interwoven to fall back to sleep and affirm who God made me to be. I admit, I am teary ever time I read about Sammy. Allie is a like a master chef in the kitchen, only her tools are keyboard, laptop and creativity in every measurement she weighs in words before adding it to her unique recipe. I am so excited to highlight these books today, I Can’t Sleep and Sammy the Snail.
There will be two lucky winners and each person will receive a copies of the books and include an amazing bracelet from Kellie Haddock’s Store if they enter on Instagram. Winners will be announced Sunday July, 18th 2021. This is going to be fun!
Allie MacPhail is a resident of the beautiful Bahamas, where she lives with her husband Bryn and daughter Anya–both of whom make her life amazing. The MacPhail family is surrounded by three beautiful Bahamian potcake dogs, a rescue dog from Hurricane Dorian and two fabulously adventurous cats.
Allie is a registered Marriage and Family Therapist (AAMFT), which means she has had the privilege of walking alongside hundreds of families through some of their toughest times. Allie has been honoured to sit with families and individuals, hear their stories, and watch tears turn into something beautiful.
Allie wrote I Can’t Sleep and Sammy the Snail with the hopes that others will be able to better identify and feel supported with their emotions. “Everyone has them, but sometimes we just don’t know what to do with them” says Allie. These books are to encourage more talking and less hiding about what we experience on the inside. Both children and adults engage with these books well!
