Children's Book Watch - September 2007 - Picturebook Shelf
"The Life and Times of Lilly the Lash: The Garden Gathering" is the debut picturebook in a new children's series featuring a clumsy young fairy named Ms. Lilly the Lash. The exuberant rhyming verse expresses a tale about Lilly's efforts to help plants and animals in need. Underlying the simple story and cartoony artwork is a message about self-esteem for young people, about the importance of building confidence and feeling good in oneself - traits that are valuable for improved performance in school and life. Highly recommended.

Children's Author Stresses Self-Esteem
Children who love Woik's first book ask her all the time when the film is coming out. "Not if there's going to be one, but when," Woik said. However, she doesn't want kids to view Lilly the Lash as some cute character like Mickey Mouse. "I want them to think she's about being good," Woik said.
She intends to teach children the basic values of life and guide them into improving their self-esteem in "The Life and Times of Lilly the Lash" series.
"I realized that good self-esteem didn't exist in everyone," Woik said about her background in psychiatry. "It was missing in children as well as adults. Not that everybody's in trouble, but you can easily bring yourself down when your self-esteem isn't there."
