#Altadenastrong
Altadena (my home), Sierra Madre, and Palisades have been through a lot this year. FIRE, YOU’RE FIRED! is the picture/coloring book I created to help kids process the incomprehensible. Families are invited to download it for free as often as you like.

Fire, You’re Fired!
After clumsy Fire accidentally destroyed Altadena, Bear, Coyote, and Rabbit decided to fire Fire. But did they go too far? Download the free PDF
I created this story for the kids in our community after the Eaton wildfire.
A coloring book with thick lines lets children explore big feelings as they color the pictures throughout the story.
TRIGGER WARNING: I drew the fire and the aftermath so kids can use the physical act of coloring to help them process their trauma. I ask adults to please pre-read the book to make sure it is appropriate for each child’s particular situation.
