As the acorn organically becomes an oak tree, people can align with their lives’ natural rhythms and joyous expression.
As spiritual beings in a physical body connected to all things, we are also one-of-a-kind, much like the sea slug. The sea slug?
The sea slug appears in her first Acorn Book and says it well:
“I am merely me,” I said matter-of-fact-ally.
I do what I do so satisfactorily.
Only be and what to do comes naturally.
How do we simply be? How do we stay true to ourselves?
And how do we stay connected to our joy?
This is our journey.

"Slug is my name,
and I live in the sea.
I have a story to tell.
Please listen to me."
A unique creature tells his delightful tale with notes for

Mr. Slug has been traveling around England and made his debut as a jigsaw puzzle that was featured in an issue of Vanity Fair!” Grace Talbot, illustrator

Debra Emerson resides in the Hudson Valley, New York. She holds a Masters degree in Education and English and has taught school for over three decades. A lover of nature, people, life, and making the world a better place, her work addresses what is authentic, relevant, and real for us as human beings.
Debra also has a four-year Master Energy Healing Certificate from the Healix Institute and has taught part-time for over twenty years. Her coaching and classes encompass the connection between mind/emotions, body, environment, and spirit and employ a variety of modalities that she has used to help both herself and others. It is her great honor to serve in this way. This experience coupled with her years as a school teacher inspires and informs her writing.
Why Acorn Books? One day, she was writing something that all of a sudden felt too big for her and that she wasn’t up to it. She was in the middle of a writer’s block when she realized: Don’t try to write. Be like the acorn. It doesn’t try to be an oak tree. Just relax and let life grow through you. And so the acorn has become a symbol of simply being, of strength, and of peace.
