As a hospitality expert and travel editor based in Washington, DC, I’ve spent countless mornings jogging, walking, and taking in the beauty of the National Mall. And no matter how many times I go, one thing always captures the attention of visitors from around the world—our bold and playful gray squirrels.
That everyday squirrel spectacle inspired me to write my first children’s book: Marble the Monumental Squirrel.
Just released and available now on Amazon, this rhyming, beautifully illustrated book follows Marble—a curious and lovable squirrel—through the iconic monuments and memorials of Washington, DC. It’s fun, educational, and full of heart.
Whether you’re shopping for a unique tourist gift, a souvenir for your child, or a book to remember a special trip to the nation’s capital, Marble the Monumental Squirrel makes a perfect choice. It’s a great read for young explorers, a top pick for DC-themed children’s gifts, and easy to pack or share.
And there’s more—a second Marble book is already on the way, with even more DC adventures to discover. Stay tuned!
Grab your copy today on Amazon – and bring a piece of DC’s wild charm into your home. Because sometimes, the smallest sights make the biggest impressions.
