I Believe in You
Sanna is a fun, happy, joyful little girl full of imagination, who loves to dance and sing in front of her mirror. Danny is Sanna’s best friend who loves to play and laugh. Sanna and Danny love to use their imaginations together to dream about growing up. They encourage each other and always say, “I believe in you.”
Danny has some life changes and is separated from Sanna to live in a different town. They both miss each other, and become sad. Danny plays the what-if game, making up stories to himself that limit him from doing what he wants to do.
Years go by and the two friends reconnect and share their stories of feeling alone. They use their belief in each other to help others to feel the love and joy of believing in themselves and sharing that belief to others.
This book was written for all ages to look in the mirror with confidence and believe in themselves. The older version looking through the mirror in their reflection reassures them that they will always believe in them. The younger reflection looking through the mirror at the end is to reflect that, even when we are older, to still encourage our inner child that they are loved and to believe in themselves. The intention in this book is to create the story of belief in yourself and others.

Excerpt
Sanna and Danny started going to boys’ and girls’ clubs. They would read to them and play imagination games with the boys and girls to pretend what they wanted to do when they grew up. The children would say a doctor because they make sick people feel better, a teacher so they could teach how to read stories and a friend so they could be there when they were happy and sad. A cook so they could cook meals for soup kitchens; a cleaner to keep the schools, stores and hospitals clean; a truck driver to bring food and clothing to the stores and drive a garbage truck to keep the streets clean. The most important person they wanted to be was themselves. They wanted to look in the mirror and love who they saw. They wanted to not judge themselves on what other people said about them. They wanted to laugh, cry and act silly, dance and play even when they were older.
