My Project

Help me get book sets to teach children about emotions, values, and how to manage them from an early age. Many of the books highlight the incredible influence of our words, thoughts, and actions.

These books are designed to inspire personal growth and empower children to lead healthy and joyful lives.

Many of my special education students come from poverty and homes that are struggling with daily needs, which leaves school to teach them about managing their big emotions and build their confidence within themselves. One box set includes the magic of words, choices, dreams, gifts, foods, feelings, moods, and body. Another tells the superpower values of kindness, mindfulness, acceptance, gratitude, confidence, honesty, patience, and love.
