A Heartfelt Connection in Tallahassee
We’d like to thank Haute Headz Salon Stylist Somkit Thompson for his kind words and personal promotion of Carol Hair Moore’s acclaimed publishing career and children’s books, “Carol Hair Moore is one of Tallahassee’s most beautiful women. She is an acclaimed children’s book author and has several published. They all have a beautiful message of love, friendship, compassion, empathy, understanding and acceptance. Each book is gorgeously illustrated by the talented Michael Harrell. She gifted these two signed books to me, and they are a wonderful heartfelt read. I grew up as a young boy in the early 1970’s reading Dick and Jane, and this brought me great childhood memories. It doesn’t matter what age you are, reading something genuinely full of goodness will always make you feel better. Be sure to check out www.iwishyouicecreamandcake.com or Amazon for other titles. Thank you Carol, I appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness. I truly wish you ice cream and cake too.” We’re honored that the books’ messages of love, friendship, compassion, empathy, and acceptance resonate so deeply with our community.
