On a snowy day just beyond the glass, the backyard comes alive, and Sergio is watching.

Bold blue jays swoop, squirrels scamper, and chipmunks chatter as a lively cast of winter visitors fills the scene. But Sergio does more than watch. He wonders. Before long, with his favorite toys gathered close, he spins playful tales filled with rhythm, sound, and a touch of mischief, all seen through the curious, often humorous eyes of a cat.

Warm, musical, and gently imaginative, Sergio’s Window Tales invites readers to see the world through curious eyes and discover the stories waiting in the natural world just outside the window.

LOCAL PICKUP: Members of the Mukwonago Area Community Choir and patients of Dr. Kelly may select FREE pickup at checkout. Your book will be provided to you personally by John or Dr. Kelly after copies arrive.

About the Book

About Sergio's Window Tales 

It's a snowy winter day, and Sergio has the perfect place to watch the world go by - his favorite spot beside the window. 

Outside, birds flutter around the feeder, squirrels scamper through the snow, and other backyard visitors come and go. But Sergio doesn't simply watch them. He wonders what they might be doing, where they might be going, and what adventures they might be having. 

Soon, Sergio's imagination takes over. 

With his favorite toy friends by his side, the ordinary sights outside his window become the inspiration for stories filled with movement, adventure, and fun. Sergio discovers that when you slow down, pay attention, and use your imagination, there is no telling where a story might take you.
