Testimonial from Academy Award Winner, George Chakiris

"Manoli the Greek Mouse is a wonderful children’s picture book. It’s creative, full of charm and really quite beautiful, with a very inspirational and meaningful message. The illustrations are just perfect. Of course, children will love it, but I think it will touch everyone’s heart. The power of kindness in itself is powerful. We all appreciate kindness when it comes our way! I know, I sure do. This book reminds us of that fact.”

Readers' Favorite 5 Star Review

"Manoli the Greek Mouse is a delightful story that beautifully illustrates the power of kindness and compassion. Children will be captivated by this charming story and the valuable lessons it imparts. George Psomas uses rhyming words and a calm tone to narrate the story, giving it a rhythmic flow, creating an engaging reading experience, and giving the tale a musical quality. The picturesque village, lush greenery, and blue skies make the setting feel alive and vibrant. The attention to detail in both the illustrations and the writing creates a visually engaging and immersive experience for readers of all ages. I recommend sharing this book with your children to teach them to be kind and caring."
