About the Author

Jenni Kotecki has a Bachelors in Studio Art. She lives in Illinois with her husband and three sons. Lit'l Crabie was inspired by her youngest son who had terrible colic and a milk allergy. When searching for something to comfort him she found nothing. She then made "The Comfort Crab". It is a small stuffed crab with a shell on top. Inside the crab is a hot/cold gel pack that can be heated or frozen depending on the child's discomfort. Inside the shell is a pocket for Aromatherapy, i.e. a tea bag or fresh herbs. The hot/cold gel packs helps the herbs release their fragrance bringing comfort to the child. The book Lit'l Crabie explains her quest in finding comfort for her son.
