Balancing Acts is a vivid and lighthearted illustration book intended to introduce the concept of balance to our youth stemming from an early age. This literary work was inspired by personal life experiences and challenges which surfaced intermittently throughout the lives of Mia and Maximo, real life mother and son. Both Mia and Maximo worked in collaboration to bring life and humor to children and their respective parents worldwide via this published work.
