Beryl Ayn Young, a teacher and photographer has just written her first children's book called "Phoebe The Photographer: Gets A Camera". 

Beryl Ayn teaches moms the in's and outs of photography through her courses on her site - http://www.berylaynyoung.com/

She has found that the real reason moms take up photography is to have deeper connections with their children.

By writing Phoebe The Photographer: Gets A Camera, Beryl Ayn hopes to inspire a love of photography in children early on in their development.

The book's message, about empowerment and resilience for girls and women, is rooted in the idea that we don't always get what we want. When Beryl Ayn was 20 weeks into her pregnancy, she lost the baby. Though she had initially planned to photograph her first daughter, Beryl Ayn leaned on photography as a way to rediscover herself. She began a blog and started sharing her work with other moms who sought her out for their own healing process. 

Some of the other challenges Beryl Ayn faced were finding the right language to use, defining the length of the book and figuring out the book's target audience. 

If you have kids who are between the ages of 3 and 8, this would make for a perfect gift to them. So, buy the book!
