Award-Winning Author Releases New Children's Book Celebrating Self-Acceptance
Image: https://authoritypresswire.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Cassie-Brooks-Sticks-and-Stones.jpgAn award-winning children's author in Florida has announced the release of a new edition of a book about self-discovery, individuality, and embracing one's unique qualities.
Sticks and Stones by Cassie Brooks is the first book in the Magick and Me series and has been republished with new illustrations by Vaishnavi Dukhande to match her other two titles. In the book, readers meet Elijah, a young boy who plays with sticks and stones as magical objects.
Although classmates call him "weird," Elijah's mom helps him realize the power of embracing who he is. The story highlights the importance of self-acceptance and the magic of standing out.
Cassie says: "The Magick in Me series was inspired by everyday conversations with my son, Elijah. This book reminds children-and myself-that being different is something to celebrate."
The Magick in Me series also includes I See the Moon and the Moon Sees Me , where Elijah learns he is never alone, with the moon symbolizing comfort and worth. And the third book is We Remember, which gently addresses grief and healing after the loss of a loved one.Cassie has won multiple awards for her children's books, including The Golden Wizard Book Prize (2023), the Richard Wright Literary Award for Best Children's Picture Book Fantasy (2024), and the International Impact Award for Best Children's Book on Grief (2025).
An accounting analyst by day and full-time mom, Cassie discovered her passion for children's literature after years of creative exploration. Through the Magick in Me series, she encourages readers of all ages to embrace their uniqueness and live authentically.
Cassie is now preparing for the release of My True Colors , a new book focused on promoting understanding, empathy, and acceptance of the trans and LGBTQ+ community among young readers.
"I wanted Elijah, and every child, to know they don't have to shrink themselves to fit in," Cassie adds. "We each have our own magic-that's what makes us special." Sticks and Stones is aimed at children aged between four and nine and offers valuable lessons on emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and self-acceptance. The book is available now in both print and digital formats through Amazon and other major retailers.
