About the Author
Ellie Moss is the creator of Lickitypop, an imaginative, candy-colored universe where jellybean forests
shimmer, bubble scooters zoom through cotton-candy skies, and problems are solved with courage, connection, and a sticky SPLAT. What began as an escape during a difficult chapter in her life quickly grew into a world that helped her find softness, hope, and joy again.
Her stories blend whimsy with emotional care: pastel illustrations designed for calm, playful sound words that encourage speech development, and gentle characters who model resilience, kindness, and friendship.
Ellie believes deeply that stories can be a form of healing for little readers discovering the world, and for
grown-ups rediscovering their breath. Through Lickitypop, she invites families to step into a place where
imagination is soothing, feelings are welcome, and magic is something we all deserve.

My Review
Everyone wants a friend and Dibs the Dragon is no exception. Dibs was the one of the nicest dragons out there. He was always kind and wanted to help others. He would help those in LicketyPop with any problem that they might have. This world was full of a child’s dream things: jellybeans, syrup, and candy of all types. Dibs loved looking at the starry sky in the evenings, but wished he had a friend to share this with. One day as he was flying over LicketyPop he heard the sound, “Help.” He flew down and saw Mooch the Marshmallow stuck in the syrup river. What do you think happened next?
This is a beautiful hard-back book. The colors are everything a child would imagine in a candy shop. Everything there looks delicious. I think children will want their parent to read this one over and over. It makes a great bedtime story, too.
