"For a book that is less than 200 pages, Creatively Ever After is big on value. I did not want to put it down! The power of this book is that you can launch a problem solving strategy, making the most of the human intellect, in the smallest period of time, to achieve a goal. The techniques are easy enough to use with children, yet advanced enough for top executives of global companies. Genius!”

"Creativity Ever After offers a clever and unique take on the Creative Problem Solving process and is incredibly engaging and deceptively simplistic in its approach.,,the reader is encouraged to tap into some of the greatest tools of creativity—humor and playfulness. Appropriate for CPS newbies and experienced practitioners alike, the book provides an easy and approachable means to learn, practice and/or teach CPS. A thoroughly enjoyable journey and a must-read for anyone interested in creative problem solving...one word of caution though—be prepared to laugh out loud!"
