Somehow the tail has begun to wag the dog and her parents don’t know what to do. Lila refuses to do anything unless she is rewarded with a treat.The book tackles this ever-so-common aspect of the parent-child relationship with both humor and authenticity as parents with the best of intentions who do in fact know better, willingly walk into a trap set up by their own child.(Oh dear! Lila will be late for school!)So her mother says, if you get dressed for school, I’ll give you a treat.Wonder of wonders...Lila got dressed right away.When a strong, willful child finds success, she can wield her newfound power with unflinching resolve. But, as parents know all too well, sometimes big problems require simple solutions.Lila Said No is one of those rare books that hits just the right note. With its powerfully snappy and repetitive dialogue, colloquial phrases, and spectacular comedic timing, Lila Said No is an immensely gratifying read. While parents will empathize, children will be amused at Lila’s silly and audacious antics—ones they know she shouldn’t get away with, but nonetheless love to see her try.Lila’s spunk and spirit shine in the pitch perfect illustrations.

So many people came together to find and help Scrim—I’m not sure that would’ve happened anywhere else.”Michelle Cheramie, founder/owner of Zeus’ Rescues, coalesced a community of volunteers for some nine months to aid in Scrim’s ultimate journey to his forever home.

In an inspiring gesture of giving back, the author is donating all of her royalties to local rescues to support animals in need. See Scrim in film and print QR codes included in the back matter of the book for all readers. Including articles from The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Times-Picayune and videos from CBS, NBC and Scrim’s Happy Dance and Scooby and Scrim I LOVE Mornings to experience the FUR-ever joy of Scrim finally at home.
