Chili Millie’s First SEA Adventure is a modern fable about a Chili girl’s journey to find a new home. Written by Jan Whalen and illustrated by Diego Mooz, this story demonstrates how friendship, support, and positive expectations carry us through life.
The story is narrated by the sassy and self-assured adult Chili Millie, beginning with the day her tribe ceremoniously sends her out into the world. She relies on a cast of sea creatures to manage the journey to her new home on Harmony Island. Along the way, Chili discovers five affirmations that transform her fear into hope, enabling her to maintain a happy disposition.
Chili Millie’s journey is a metaphor for the power of relationships and attitudes that guide us through life’s changes, challenges, and transitions. While this story was written as a legacy for grandchildren, Chili Millie’s First Sea Adventure is a multi-generational book—written to be read aloud or read alone by children from 5 – 105. It gives hope to young people who might feel vulnerable, while the “young at heart” will recognize the usefulness of the fable’s life lessons in today’s fast-paced, unpredictable world.
Future stories of Chili Millie’s journey to adulthood tell how she accepts her uniqueness as a Chili Person while living on Harmony Island among regular humans.
