Hey, what's all this excitement about becoming vegan?
For those who want to learn more about veganism but who don't have the time or inclination to wade through long articles, videos, or documentaries, Vivian Chinelli offers a perfect alternative - concisely clever riveting rhymes and raps that deliver the vegan message with a snappy beat.
This little book with a big message contains 81 original pieces that are passionate, provocative, and sometimes light-hearted, but always informative and inspirational. Ms. Chinelli's rhymes, and the powerful quotes that accompany them, explore animal rights issues and how veganism positively impacts our health and the well-being of our planet and all its inhabitants.
In I'M NOT VEGAN BUT MY COUSIN IS, classic nursery rhymes like Mary Had a Little Lamb are turned upside-down when Ms. Chinelli puts a poignant and thoughtful vegan twist on them. Other pieces in her book such as
GASSY and GOOD GRIEF focus on the issues affecting our environment;
A VEGAN TWIST and VEGAN RESTAURANTS highlight the joys of eating plant-based foods;
CARTOON ANIMALS and TURKEY TALK describe life as a captive animal through the eyes of our winged, finned and four-legged friends.
When you are ready to dig a little deeper, visit Ms. Chinelli's website at vivianchinelli.com for resources that will not only get you started, but will also elevate, educate, and motivate.
Ms. Chinelli acknowledges in one of her rhymes that when it comes to making the choice to be vegan, she can't require you, only hope to inspire you.
And inspire you, she will!
