Sambo Semo: What you can do when someone believes in you!

Sambo Semo wants to help, but things seem to go wrong. He takes adventures to visit the local shopkeeper, and his mistakes continue, but he keeps learning because those around him believe in him. This is an enchanting story set in Africa, colorfully illustrated by Carizza Losbanos who lives in the Philippines. Children will be modeled about healthy learning without shame or blame.

Phil "Philosofree" Cheney B.Ec, Cert Bus. Stud, MACS, FIDA. "I have used up all my 9 cat's lives in many adventures, such as wrestling a seven foot long shark from the ocean with my bare hands! Life is full of vibrancy and I love to play music and dance in celebration, which I do every week playing jazz, blues and covers at a restaurant in Toronto. For me, meaning and connection are exemplified by family and friends, a Universal Intentional Love Energy which I write about in my non-fiction work, UILE. I welcome the crossing of your path with mine, in fun or in the lessons of pain, both of which shape my life with creativity and understanding. Feel free to connect!"
