I Love You Ocean is a heartfelt children's picture book that takes little dreamers on a magical journey. Each morning, Sophia sends her love to the Ocean with all her heart. Tiny heart-shaped bubbles magically emerge from her heart and begin a wondrous journey across the world.

These magical bubbles carry her love into the Ocean to all sea creatures and inspire joy in their underwater world. The love-filled bubbles travel to distant lands through the clouds and rain, bringing happiness to animals on the safari, and even helping nourish crops and plants for local farms. Sophia’s small but heartfelt act becomes a force that touches everything, showing that even the simplest gestures of love can make a big difference.

Through vibrant illustrations, I Love You Ocean teaches children about the interconnectedness of life, the wonders of the water cycle, and the transformative power of love and intention. At its heart, the book shares a profound message: love is an energy that flows endlessly, connecting all living things and reminding us that what we give to the world will find its way back to us.

Joy Legacy Publishing: A Family Dream

Joy has always been at the heart of my life, and it’s even in my name. My dad and I both share the middle name Joy, and more than that, we share a deep belief in living with joy and spreading it wherever we go. That’s why we founded Joy Legacy Publishing—a company built on the idea that stories have the power to uplift, inspire, and create lasting change.

This publishing house is more than just a business; it’s a legacy we’re building together. Through children’s books, empowering stories, and creative projects yet to come, we hope to bring messages of love, courage, and gratitude to the world. Joy is our foundation, our mission, and the gift we want to pass on—one book at a time.
