In a touching blend of creativity, family, and full circle meaning, 9 year old author Alice Catherine and her father, children’s book author and publisher Tom Tracy, have released their first collaborative project: Seasons: A Child’s Perspective. The book launched on March 22, 2026—a date chosen with intention and love, as it marks the anniversary of Alice Catherine’s legal adoption. Within just two days, the book soared to earn Amazon’s coveted #1 New Release badge, an extraordinary achievement for any debut author, let alone one still in elementary school.

Seasons: A Child’s Perspective is a lyrical, rhyming celebration of the small wonders that define each season. Through Alice Catherine’s observant and imaginative voice, readers are invited to rediscover the world with childlike awe—from swirling autumn leaves to the hush of winter snow, from springtime blossoms to sun drenched summer days. Yet beneath the beauty of nature lies the book’s deeper message: while seasons change, family remains the constant that makes every moment meaningful.
“This story is a reminder that children often see what adults overlook,” says Tracy. “Alice Catherine has a gift for capturing joy in the everyday, and helping her bring this poem to life as a published book has been one of the greatest honors of my life.”
The project reflects the powerful bond between father and daughter—one rooted in love, creativity, and the shared belief that children’s voices deserve to be heard. Their collaboration showcases not only Alice Catherine’s emerging talent, but also the dynamic, supportive relationship that helped bring her vision to the page.
