Perfectly Imperfect in Sensible Shoes: The Early Learning Edition
Perfectly Imperfect in Sensible Shoes: The Early Learning Edition
Written for anyone who works with children, this book captures moments many will recognize and others will come to understand. It’s not a textbook and it’s not theory. It’s reflective, story-based learning drawn from everyday practice.
You’ll recognize moments like:
• sitting in tiny blue chairs while writing observations
• realizing some of the most creative moments do not leave anything to hang up on the walls
• holding a conversation while tying laces, wiping hands and counting heads
• keeping one eye on ratios and paperwork while responding very seriously to injuries that disappear the moment you look
These stories reflect the humour, heart and learning that show up in real time, often when you least expect them.
*Ask about professional learning workshops and presentations that can be paired with the book.

Perfectly Imperfect in Sensible Shoes: The Villagers Edition
Perfectly Imperfect in Sensible Shoes: The Villagers Edition
Everyone has heard the saying, “It takes a village to raise a child.” But who are the villagers?
In this heartfelt and humorous collection of true memoirs, Kimberley Faber introduces the people who became part of her family’s village as Liam grew and their family learned to navigate complex systems, unexpected challenges, and all the twists and turns along the way:
• Family and friends who offered love, laughter, advice, and the occasional emergency snack
• ECEs, teachers, social workers, therapists, doctors, and other professionals who brought expertise, patience, and plenty of paperwork
• Schools, programs, and organizations that opened doors, connected us with support, and created unforgettable opportunities
• Strangers who appeared for a brief moment but somehow became part of the story forever
• Silent online cheerleaders who liked, commented on, and shared our social media posts
This is not simply a family story. It is a celebration of the people who help us keep going and remind us that no one has to walk alone.
Currently in development; planned for summer 2027.
