Marnie founded Butterfly Publishing, after being inspired by her own children’s challenges of dyslexia and eczema. She loves being able to simplify complicated subjects in ways that are easily understood, respectful and fun to look at and learn from. Marnie wants children to know that there are solutions to challenges. By learning how you can manage eczema, dyslexia and other challenges, can be very empowering. This sets a child up believing they can change adversity and in turn direct their lives.

The Eczema Detective by Marnie Hibbert is an educational picture book for young children. A young boy named Levi suffers from eczema and is sick and tired of feeling itchy and sore. It impacts his life massively and he just can't take it anymore. So one day, he tells his friend Squirrel, and Squirrel has a solution to Levi's problem. Squirrel suggests the two of them become detectives to find out what exactly is causing Levi's eczema to flare up. I wonder what they find out after conducting their investigations. Maybe it's the neighbor's cat? Or Levi's dog? If you're just as curious as I was, then grab a copy of this wonderful book!
The Eczema Detective was a pleasure to read. I know people who suffer from this horrible condition and how badly it can affect their health. Most children may not know about eczema so books like this will not only educate them about the condition, but will also teach them many important lessons including acceptance, kindness, and more. Marnie Hibbert has kept the writing simple to enable children to read along with ease. The illustrations are vibrant and professional, and young readers will love them. I will certainly be reading this book to my nephew and telling him all about eczema, so thank you, Marnie, for creating this helpful book. I know children will love reading every page of it. Keep up the great work. I can't wait to see what other educational content you have to offer.
