Challenge yourself,

and never give up on your aspirations,

as life is a roller coaster ride,

of delightful surprises.

What an incredible journey it has been so far.  We now are venturing on with Koolamundo and the many characters that pop in and out of my head. At times I must have driven my family and friends crazy with my kooky ideas and let’s go for it attitude.  But they have patiently waited for me to return to earth, which I do once in a while.

Our first project as you all know has been about Klara, our sweet cow who knows how to bow.  There has been a lot going on behind the scenes and we would like to thank the amazing individuals who have helped us with this project personally. 

Beautiful Apoorva is our wonderful and creative illustrator, who has worked side by side with me, but on another continent. This amazing lady also helped us with our Hindi translation.

Our special Gigi, for helping us with Chinese.  Thank you sweetie.

Dearest Coco, we appreciate all of your help, lovey.

Gorgeous Siona for translating Klara into Spanish whilst she was busy studying at University in Dublin.

Carol our talented song producer for taking my lyrics and turning them into two wonderful children’s songs. 

Helen for helping me with French translations, you’re a doll and Lovely Ulli for working on our German book.

Paul Martin, who was there for us with Dutch, you’re the best.  Sheryl, my busy friend, that drops everything for us, thank you.

The book is dedicated to my wonderful family who continues to support me on this journey.  I would like to say a big thank you to each of you.  I am so fortunate to have such gifted gorgeous and generous friends around me.  

Adventure, here we go

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow

Watch me swinging round and round

Miss the tree but not the ground

Alook they call me from afar

My planet’s from a special star


Welcome to the first verse of our new upbeat melody.  We are excited for you to listen to our Koolamundo song.  It’s a Kool Kool world out there and we want you to join in the fun with us.  As you listen to the beat of the drums, sounds of the jungle and forest.  Harmonizing vocals with this upbeat tune.  Grab a dance partner and get your feet moving with Alook as he takes you on his next adventure.

So there I was, sitting on my couch in farmer Rale’s field and who do you think came to pay me a visit?  Yes, my special friend Klara the cow.  If her hoofs were a little cleaner, I would have let her cuddle with me on the couch.

This journey started many years ago in my mind, but on July 7th, 2015, Koolamundo will deliver to the world what we are calling the “Whole Package”.  Klara the Cow Who Knows How To Bow is much more than a book. When the book is purchased (digital or printed versions), the buyer will be able to download the rest of the package for FREE which includes:

·         Sing-along eBook

·         Sing-along Soundtrack

·         Instrumental Only Soundtrack

·         Audio Book

·         Read-along Video

Koolamundo is an Edutainment company, not just a publisher of children’s books.  Reading a book with a child is a lot of fun, but we want to enhance the learning and educational aspects by sprinkling in a little fun!

In addition to all the FREE stuff, we have resources for teachers that can be used in classrooms, nursery schools, libraries and even home schooling.

If you want to learn a new language, we can also help.  Klara the Cow Who Knows How to Bow will be printed in these 8 languages English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Hindi, and Simplified Chinese. The Kindle version will include English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, but due to the special characters, Kindle does not accept Hindi and Simplified Chinese.  All FREE downloads are in English only at this point.

In the coming 6-12 months we will be releasing additional books as part of the “Friendship Series”. What we are really excited about is that some of our characters will be coming to life through animation, so I may just be bowing with Klara one day soon. 

Please check the Koolamundo website often for new and fun stuff.  In fact, if you go to our home page and click on the “Free Newsletter” button, we will make sure we keep you up to date with all the happenings at Koolamundo.

Drum roll please ………for July 7th.
