Her new book ‘The Cookie Caper’ was launched at Yoga Reaches out a fundraising event for Boston Childrens Hospital, in April 2023. The Cookie Caper is a lesson in the use of strategy, collaboration and negotiation to overcome obstacles, transform and thrive. The book is entertaining, quite humorous, and educational offering glimpses into environmental issues such as the need to reduce Greenhouse Gases, lower Co2 levels and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. The book highlights the importance of recognizing life’s wins and acknowledging successes. Cookies, the much desired and sought-after object in the story, are used as a metaphor for love throughout the book. The fictitious River Community, where the story takes place, harnesses the power of the love that brought them together to achieve great things.
