The magic of we

The Magic of We encourages and challenges the imagination of children.

It is a poem that tells the story of two people finding one another. The Magic of We is author Danielle Anderson-Craig's tribute to her long time partner, Grammy winning musician Isaiah "Ikey" Owens, best known as the accomplished musician/producer from the gold-record selling Mars Volta and platinums selling Jack White band.

The book was written in response to Owens' untimely death from heart attack in October, 2014. The book will include two unreleased, exclusive Ikey Owens songs. Third Man Records will be releasing an Ikey Owens box set in late 2017/ early 2018. Author Danielle Anderson-Craig and Illustrator Carly Dooling met at a bay area Montessori school where they both were working as teachers. Anderson-Craig has been an educator of primary school aged children for over 15 years, teaching in California and throughout southern Thailand in Montessori, public, and art based learning environments. Anderson-Craig spent several years performing spoken word and slam poetry in the Los Angeles area, winning competitions and collaborating with local poetry heroes. The Magic of We is the debut book for both Dooling and Anderson-Craig.
