Robin Raven: Author "Santa's First Vegan Christmas"

Robin Raven returns to Rated G Radio to showcase her latest children's book, "Santa's First Vegan Christmas."

Santa's First Vegan Christmas is a holiday jewel that is sure to inspire and help guide children of all ages to greater compassion and understanding. Beautiful full-color illustrations delight the eyes while poetic lines unfold a new version of Clement Moore s Christmas classic. --Dr. Will Tuttle, best-selling author

Santa's First Vegan Christmas is a first! Beautifully written and stunningly illustrated, this wonderful book shows clearly how all of Earth's residents, nonhuman and human alike, benefit when kindness, compassion, peace, and love are abundantly extended to all beings. It's a win-win for everyone. I hope this lovely and most important book will find its way into all schools, libraries, homes, and hearts. Congratulations to Robin Raven and Kara Maria Schunk for taking the time to produce this landmark book. It really is that good. --Marc Bekoff, author of numerous books including the award-winning children's book Jasper's story: Saving moon bears (with Jill Robinson) and Rewilding Our Hearts: Building Pathways of Compassion and Coexistence

This disarming, beautiful book reads like a collaboration between Dr Seuss and Grandma Moses. And how refreshing to encounter the classic Santa Claus story rendered into an uplifting tale of love and respect for all who may enjoy life. --Jonathan Balcombe, author of What a Fish Knows
