Richest Girl Plate for Website.jpg
Friends & Beloveds! 
 
On Christmas Day 2020, I launched my children's book on the indwelling nature of friendship. It is not a book in print, but instead has taken on the medium of a videobook.  Inspired, in part, by the children's classic "Peter and the Wolf," I simply could not envision this story without it being told aloud, in the beloved tradition of bedtime stories from our own childhoods. 
 
When a sage old man arrives in an enchanting village, he changes the life of a little girl forever, who changes his right back. Featuring over a hundred colorful illustrations, and underscored with a whimsical music score, THE RICHEST GIRL IN THE WORLD sets the stage for a timeless and quintessentially fable-istic tale. Lessons of gratitude and seeing beauty everywhere are illustrated by the story's two characters, as this story is right on time to offer Kid-Lit for a risen consciousness. With playful references to Van Gogh, Banksy, and Munch, THE RICHEST GIRL IN THE WORLD is for kids ages 8 to 108!

Now the recipient of several film festival awards, for which I am beside myself with gratitude, I've recently re-edited, remastered, and re-released my little moviette, which is available on YouTube absolutely free.  And if you have the YouTube app on your smart TV, watch it there.  It's most fun on a big screen!   Enjoy!  And please help spread the word.

GOODWILL FOR THE RICHEST GIRL IN THE WORLD
 
This is the charm, or one of the many, of Angela Carole Brown. She is an embracer of life.
She puts into plain view our dearest desire to be drawn into child-like wonder — and she achieves it.
When Angela tells a story, she speaks to us in words our hearts understand and appeals
to the wonder we never want to lose. Thank you for your beauty, your poignancy, your grit,
and your amazing commitment to our better selves.

“Have a safe journey my friend. We’ll see each other again, and remember...
the universe can always use a good thank you.”
Those are just a few of my favorite words in this video book,
including lessons on the fruits of the spirit.  I really loved this,
and Angela Carole Brown’s voice is warm, gentle, and therapeutic.  Sheer delight.

A beautiful story, and a gorgeous art book to boot!  I found myself drifting into the story
at the first frame.  You and your kiddies will too!  I loved it, and would recommend this
to any teacher looking for a visual story with an upbeat story line, and with positive, life-affirming
treasures sprinkled here and there throughout.  Truly a story for all ages.

Oh my!!!  What a beautifully written and illustrated lesson about gratitude. 
Thanks for this sweet reminder.   I loved it!

CAROL COLE

The Richest Girl in the World is sensational!!  We watched it on our big screen TV. 

I have been depressed AF, and this lifted my spirits.  I love the message.  I love the way

Angela uses her art to define spatial places and I love her use of color.

Chris Hardin did a great job on the music!!  

Do yourself a favor and watch this beautiful piece of work if you have not seen it before. 

Wise, insightful, and full of joy. Both gritty and angelic.

My wife and I just finished watching this and are richer for it!
