The Table is a touching story about family, love, and togetherness. Centered around a large dining table, it reflects the memories built across many simple, joyful moments, from shared meals and heartfelt laughter to learning, growing, and even resolving conflicts.
As a family of seven, with five children, dining out was rare. Instead, the home became a sanctuary where many gathered, friends, neighbors, and visitors alike. Around La Mesa Grande, meals were shared, songs were sung, homework was done, creative ideas blossomed, and lasting memories were made.
"This book made me pause and reflect on the little everyday moments with my family. The illustrations are so warm and real, it felt like watching our own life unfold on the pages."
"Beautifully written and deeply relatable. I saw my own dining table, my kids’laughter, and our quiet nights right there in the story. It reminded me how precious those small moments really are."
"A touching and gentle book that celebrates the heart of family life. I especially loved how the story doesn't try too hard, it’s simple, honest, and that’s exactly what makes it powerful."
"We read this in our parenting group, and honestly, we were all tearing up. The story, the pace, the images, it all just hit home. This isn’t just a book, it’s a mirror for many of us."
"It’s rare to find a book that speaks so quietly but leaves such a lasting echo. Every page reminded me that even the mundane has meaning when shared with those we love."
"This book took me back to the days when my kids were young. It’s nostalgic, gentle, and beautifully done. I’m gifting it to both my daughters, they’ll love it as much as I did."
"A heartfelt story about connection and presence. In a world full of noise, this book is a quiet reminder of what really matters, being there for each other."
