“The Adventures of Phatty and Payaso: Central Park,” (iUniverse, August 24, 2018) is an Early Chapter Book by Marie Unanue. Marie’s fascination with Characterlab.org helped her to write a story that would help teach the character skills missing in today’s children. The book focuses on six skills: curiosity, gratitude, grit, self- control, social intelligence, and zest.
