Since age five, Joey Benun has loved numbers—big and small. At age ten, while watching a TV
game show, Benun knew “nonillion” was a real number (not “dubrillion”), which the contestant
didn’t. His love of fun factoids about mathematics continued into adulthood. In the summer of
2020, while eating lunch with his niece and nephews, he quizzed them on different numbers. He
realized that they were intrigued by BIG numbers as much as he was, which sparked the idea for
his first book.

I love anything outdoors! Hiking, biking, boating, traveling, swimming, etc and I love to take my two young children and husband along with me to do these activities. I could play outside all day long, I love it! I also love to bake and cook!

Dear Friends,

February is Black History Month and brings several excellent excuses to partake of life’s best things: celebrations of love, civil rights achievements, and Nutella day. Raising a happy and confident child in this big world is the most difficult job for a parent, so it is important to encourage and empower them to be brave and confident. Love is the best and most beautiful thing in this world that cannot be seen or touched but just felt in the heart. It is important to tell them that they are always loved and have the capability to make this world a better place to live for all.
We dedicated this month’s edition to Black history and incorporated books, articles, games, and activities that promote love, diversity, and inclusion. I hope you all will like it, and please share your feedback at kidliomag@gmail.com

Love & Peace

Unfortunately, her older half-sister Alison lives on a whole other continent. Their video chats are great, and Molly is thrilled when Alison’s hand-written letters arrive in the mail like surprise gifts. Still, it’s not enough, not compared to what other siblings have.

But then Alison arrives with plans of her own, a fragile heart gets broken, and Molly stumbles upon a painful piece of her sister’s past. Molly has always loved having a sister, but this is the August when she’ll learn what it really means to be one.
