About the Books
The Silhouette Man by Jillip Naysinthe Paxson tells the story of a young person who wants to make a difference in the world -- and the grandparent who mentors and guides him along the way. It is based on the real-life relationship between Greg and his Grandma, and the lessons she taught him. The Silhouette Man was recognized in Canada with the Wisdom Speaks honor -- given to a book that celebrates the unique wisdom of seniors. The First Thirty (the condensed student edition of the book) was honored as NSDLC Multicultural Relations Book of the Year. The illustrated version of the book is called The Milkshake Man - geared toward Kindergarten to 4th grade kids (or adults who prefer to read picture books) The books are used by schools, retirement communities, companies & organizations around North America. Each book also has an optional companion workbook (A Place To Sit for The Silhouette Man or The First Thirty / One Lunch for The Milkshake Man) Scroll down to see the front covers, back covers & page 1 reviews for the books.
