Veronika, author of The Power of Art: When My Feelings Can’t Talk is donating the Library Edition of her book to every public elementary school in the Temecula Valley School District and to District Librarians around the county.

Veronika Childs is a local author, speaker, podcast host and mother of three. Through her creative projects, she works to inspire others to make an impact. Veronika writes in a variety of genres, and her work is rooted in emotional regulation, healing, and transformation.
Most recently, she hosted a book fair and story time at Barnes and Noble on February 18th, to benefit local nonprofit organization Charity for Charity.
She also hosted a virtual story time on National Read-Aloud Day for two classes from Home Instead Innovation Academy, a virtual public school in Temecula.
“This was my first event promoting The Power of Art: When My Feelings Can’t Talk. I was really nervous, but once I sat on the stage with all of those innocent little eyes looking up at me, the fear melted away and the story told itself.
Afterwards, the kids asked insightful questions like ‘can you be mad and sad at the same time?’ One boy even asked me if I was a professional story reader. When I told him I was the author, his face lit up with awe.
I had a mom tell me that because she has two kids in her family on the spectrum, the book ‘really hit home.’ Seeing my work positively affect children and families felt incredible. I can’t wait to get these books into as many little hands as possible.”
“I love this book as both a mom and an educator. Children will be able to help access their feelings through art, and that is always a good start.”—Abbie Caruso, Elementary School Teacher
“As a therapist and a mother of a child whose emotions are sometimes hard for her to express, a book like this is just what I’ve been looking for. It allows her to express her emotions in a different way than the traditional and will allow her to feel like they are being heard. As a therapist, I can’t wait to recommend it to my clients and their parents. I think this book will be a game-changer for kids who need a non-traditional way to express emotions.”—Laura Edwards Hasse, LCPC
“Emotions can be overwhelming for kids, but this book teaches how to handle them and gives them a healthy outlet through art! Highly recommend for any parents with kids.”—Kate Reyes
“Art can permeate the very deepest part of us, where no words exist.” ―Eileen Miller
“I make art when I can’t gather the words to say.” ― Nikki Rowe
“The medical profession has come a long way in recognizing the healing benefits of art. My hope is that someday the arts will be considered as essential in everyone’s lives as breathing fresh air, eating clean foods, and engaging in physical exercise.” ―Renée Phillips.
