My Sparkle, My Way is the debut release from AuSome Pals—a heartwarming two-in-one children’s book that invites readers into Kali’s bright and beautiful world. The first story, Kali’s Colorful World, follows Kali as she discovers the magic in everyday moments through her unique perspective. The second story, Family Day, celebrates love, connection, and the joy of being surrounded by people who help you shine.

As the first book in the AuSome Pals collection, My Sparkle, My Way gently reminds every child that their feelings matter, their differences are beautiful, and their sparkle is something to be proud of.
