Encourage honesty in your child!
Why do children lie? To avoid getting in trouble, of course! Children need to feel comfortable and safe to tell their parents if they did something wrong, and it's parents' responsibility to ensure the trust is established, and that honesty is always rewarded.
Little Lucy has a secret that she’s too embarrassed about to share with her mom… So, she starts making up little “white lies" to cover it up. But, as it often happens when you try to hide the truth, little lies get bigger and bigger until they grow into a giant mess. In this creative whirlwind of rhyming and make-believe events, Lucy realizes a lot of trouble can be avoided by just telling the truth.
The combination of a real-life situation and an outlandish story creates a delightful and entertaining read that both children and parents can relate to while sharing a lesson about honesty they can both understand.

In the 5th book of Mark Brown's critically acclaimed children's book series, Zen Pig shares what he thinks life is really about. He talks about the importance of taking action and learning from our own mistakes.
"You are here to take action,
Make mistakes, and learn lessons.
To get back up, you first must fall,
No one great came from perfection."

A beautiful and inclusive book about being accepted!
Mack the yak found it hard to fit in with the other yaks in his herd and always felt left out of their fun and games, all because he couldn't speak or hear. He also didn't know how to explain to others why he wasn't able to play with them, and that made him feel even more lonely and sad.
Then, one day, the herd came up with a creative solution... a silent language! From that day on, Mack was eager to "talk" and "hear," and became a happy and included member of the herd. With the help of his new friends, he learned that understanding and kindness can overcome any special needs!
This book teaches us to be inclusive, accepting, and kind to each other no matter how different we all may be. Whether your child has a special need or not, it is a perfect tool to get the conversation going about people with disabilities or impairments.
"Yackety Mack" also includes a page with the American Sign Language Alphabet so you and your child can practice using sign language with each other while learning the core values of acceptance!
