Barbara Daniels

Barbara Daniels lives in a suburb of St. Louis, MO with her mother, daughter, and an energetic and imaginative grandson. Now retired, she holds a degree in Psychology from Maryville University-St. Louis. She hopes her book, TIMMY TEACUP TRANSFORMS, will help children with their self-image. "I decided to write this book because I noticed throughout the years that kids (and adults) don't possess self-confidence. They don't like a lot of things about themselves and some of them tend to feel invisible," Daniels said. She hopes the positive messaging in her first book will encourage children to understand that they are perfect just the way they are; and, that they don't have to be different to be happy. She hopes the message to LOVE YOURSELF THE WAY YOU ARE will reach millions of children and adults around the world.

LOVE YOURSELF

Whether you're thin or fat,

Purple or blue,

Just love yourself,

Because you're YOU!
