Some Days: A Tale of Love, Ice Cream and my Mom’s Chronic Illness

By Julie A. Stamm, Illustrated by Chamisa Kellogg | The Experiment, October 2021

Warm and uplifting, Some Days gently introduces young readers to the concept of having a loved one with a chronic illness. Although some days are fast and some are slow, each one is filled with love, excitement, and fun . . . not to mention ice cream!

“This beautiful picture book shares an affirming message that honestly and unapologetically reflects life with a parent who has a chronic illness. . . . A loving, tender celebration of the mother-child bond.”

“Kellogg’s illustrations notably construct an unshakeable parent-child relationship using warm, vibrant colors and joyful expressions. Love and acceptance radiate on every page.”

— Kirkus Starred Review

I used the interior illustrations for Some Days to create an animated book trailer. Huge thanks to Emily Jeanne Brown for the music!
