"Pamplemousse loves to surf!

When COVID-19 sent everyone to work-from-home in March of 2020, we were all uncertain about what the future would be like. At the time, author K Monahan was working nights but the work-from-home switch happened to coincide with him also moving to an earlier shift. This meant he was able to spend some much needed time with his young kids. It also meant that he was able to finally be home for bedtime!

His daughter was a big fan of the ""tell me a story"" request so he would have to invent a new story every night for her. On one of those nights, he dreamt up a story about a surfing goat with the silliest name he could think of... Pamplemousse. The story is about how an adorable surfing goat is denied entry into a surfing contest because he's a goat and it's for humans only. He has to find a way to still showcase his talents and keep doing what he loves. Well... his daughter LOVED it! She loved it so much that she asked for it night after night. She even retold it to her mom, who loved it as well. In fact, K Monahan's wife loved it so much that she hired an illustrator to bring the story to life.

Fast forward to today and ""Pamplemousse"" is an official, published book. K Monahan is beyond excited and happy that the story can be shared with other kids all around the world. Although it's a children's book, he believes we all need to be reminded of its message from time to time: There will be obstacles in life. So, we can look at them as the end of our journey or we can find a way to overcome them and move on.

Vibrant illustrations and the adorable Pamplemousse keep readers engaged while also introducing such elements as:

Exploring Emotions - Excitement, confusion, sadness, joy, and more.

Overcoming Obstacles - Not giving up on something, especially during the tough times.

Remaining True to Oneself - Not letting anyone but you decide who you are or what you should be.

Doing What You Love - You'll always feel like a winner!
