A children's book, intended for children aged two years and above. The book tells the story of Little Tickly, a colorful Fin fish, clever and curious, who lives in a coral reef in the deep blue sea. One day, his mother notices the colors on Tickly's little body are fading. Little Tickly swims with his parents to the getting better Reef, where he meets new friends, receive treatment and spend time, until his colors are once again beautiful and clear. The book uses the metaphor of fading colors to describe a situation of a temporary incompatibility due to illness. There is no mentioning in the book of a specific illness, therefore it is appropriate to describe any situation (from influenza or moody feeling to severe illnesses). With the help of the book it is possible to explain to children their own health situation or of someone else in their surroundings (pre-school, classroom, family, etc.) and generate with them a space for dialogue, while using the language of colors. At the end of the book there is a professional article (written by Ayelet Heller, an experienced educational consultant and psychotherapist) which serves as a "users' guide" to the adult telling the story.

Michael Sadler has been tracing the curvatures of his existence through songwriting, poetry and photography for more than half his life. In his debut collection of verse, Fade to Blue, Sadler shines a spotlight on the many facets of our lived experiences?the inevitable connections that weave through adolescence, young adulthood and middle-age. He captures the contagious energy and extreme despairs of youth, the tumultuous realities of adulthood, and the agonizing nostalgia of the timelessness of unrequited love. While wrestling with the questions of life and how to live it, living with purpose, and finding meaning in the journey, these poems offer an honest exploration of the value of solitude and our pursuit for connection. As Sadler writes stirringly about identity, road trips, memories of his father, love never reciprocated, spirituality, and death, he illustrates the need for moments of both agony and affection?the night and the stars?to fully appreciate all that life has to offer.
