I first came across Stephanie looking for books written about daydreaming, only to find her beautiful song “Always in the Clouds” – highly recommend it. I was delighted to find other works by her; she’s very talented.

Tale of a Job Interview at OhlalaLand was funny, educational, overall entertaining and very real. If you take a good look at the characters, I’m sure you’ll be able to identify with each one in some for or another. If you have ever been in this situation of looking for a new job or career change, or trying to land your “dream” job, then for sure you have also experienced these different characters and situations yourself. She takes us on her physical journey, as well as her mental journey, with the questions and fears and hopes and dreams that we all encounter. All the doubts and uncertainties of new opportunities are well represented, but ultimately this is not what it’s about – only.

Stephanie shows us how we are all at some point in our lives discouraged with our dreams. How we are told to put our feet on the ground and stop always being in the clouds – be realistic. Oh yeah, and how we need to focus and get out of “la la land”. Stephanie has made “Oh La La Land” a real place, one that all of us have visited in guilt and dreamt about. She has swept us into the reality of what Oh La La Land looks like – with monsters and eaglets – but with great surprises if we just take the chance.

I recommend this book to everyone… even high school teens.
