We are all aware, living on our tiny little island paradise, that we are all blessed!!! Our simple lifestyle is different from that of those in the larger world and its simplicity is part of its enormous beauty! This has been proved by a totally charming book that has been written by our resident yoga guru Jessica Retseck Wigh.

Jessica, originally from Indiana, lives on the island with her husband Brad and their two young sons. She appreciates the carefree lifestyle of the children born and raised her on the Caye and has decided to write a book to illustrate this and we LOVE IT!!

For more information on the book and how to purchase click here.

Experience pure adventure with Gilford and Alvis in 'Caye Boy Visits the Jungle'

Have you ever felt like a tourist in your own country? Well, author Jessica Retseck Wigh totally gave that illusion in her latest book in her Caye Boy series, 'Caye Boy Visits the Jungle'. The book features Gilford and his little brother Alvis, and their adventures growing up on an island. Gilford and his family live on Caye Caulker island, and being separated by many miles and actual water made exploring Belize City quite exciting.

In the book, Gilford and Alvis are so excited to visit Mama's family on the mainland, taking the trip as a big adventure since they're used to their little island and blue house. From doing unusual things such as getting their hair brushed to putting on "itchy" clothes, Jessica's new book shows how the brothers experience culture shock, but adapt very well to the jungle.

Author Jessica explained her inspiration behind her latest Caye Boy book. "My husband I have been on the island for over 17 years, and we watched our neighborhood children grow up. We have three children of our own, and the first two books were only about the island experience, and so we wanted to add the mainland experience in the third book. When you live on an island, it is very common that people have families scattered around the country. We wanted the island children from the book to visit their mother's extended family in the mainland, and have a different kind of fun from what they're used to," said Jessica.
