"Everyone Loves Trallala is a fun way to teach children about the many ways the hemp plant can be used.
As I read this book, I was thinking of the lessons I could do in a classroom. The book could be used for a science lesson combined with teaching how to be a good friend by being kind, helpful, and accepting each other’s differences. The questions presented for discussion throughout make it easy to interact with a child while reading. Trallala and other characters in the book are so cute I found myself smiling many times!"

“Introducing young readers to a superfood like hemp is a great idea, and the work of Anndrea Hermann and team in the English version of the Markus J. Altenfels and Roswitha Mayr book, Everyone Loves Trallala: The Exciting Journey of a Little Hempseed, have done a splendid job at it. Through uplifting storytelling that weaves fictional narrative with hemp facts, charming illustrations (by Rooobert Bayer) and questions posed to readers within the story, we follow the young seed Trallala through her farmyard journey to the field of singing flowers. Along the way we learn of hemp's food and industrial applications, and end in a literal smile, where Trallala grows into a healthy, robust, seed producing plant herself. A highly recommended read for families.”

“Everyone Loves Trallala is a delightful story of a hempseed named Trallala who embarks on a journey of friendship and fun. My favourite part is when Gloria said, “Happy friends make happy endings.” It is truly a remarkable children’s book that will be a historic treasure about a remarkable plant.”

“Trallala the tiny hemp seed makes a big splash on the farm where she makes new friends on her journey to becoming a hemp plant. Anndrea Hermann — a pioneer in the U.S. hemp industry — is now pioneering an important step in the journey to mainstream education; Teaching our youngest generation about the joy and love that can spring from each and every plant — if we only choose to accept the immense value of one tiny little seed.”
Katie Moyer,

“Trallala is an adventurous story of a hemp seed, symbolic of our own personal journey through discovery of identity and following a dream in life. It touches on the value of friendship and a message that we are better together and that it will be better than we can imagine, even if we get muddy. After all the most revered, spiritual, beautiful flower in existence, the lotus, grows out of the mud and muck.
The significance is even more moving as the publisher, Anndrea, is a human that I trust and respect personally and professionally. She is a visionary that may be a bit fashion-forward in the hemp revolution. The system refers to her as Legacy and I add Legit! She has walked the path of the seed which she writes about! Love the learning and lessons that surround all this woman does. I read this to the kids and it opens so many paths of discussion. Love it!"
