"Defining Moments is a deeply honest, personal and at times moving account of one man's voyage of self-discovery. Through a series of "defining moments", Kees shows how personal crises and professional challenges can not only be overcome but can also be used to help give greater purpose and meaning to life - to help make the individual stronger, the family more cohesive and the organization more united." Paul Polman, Chief Executive Officer, Unilever

What did we do once we knew? 
This book is written for both children and adults to entertain and educate. 
Join storytime as Grandma recounts her adventures with an alphabet of wild animals to her granddaughter, Little Dove. But with species loss accelerating at an alarming rate, will there be any creatures left for Little Dove to play with? 
We have solutions that can make a difference. Working together, we can step up to our responsibility to protect what we still can in this magical, more-than-human world. Then we can have hope that instead of talking about where the wild things were we can speak to our children and grandchildren about where the wild things are.
