I Swallowed a Bubble
Squeals of delight. That's what happens when the students in Author Kimberly Stringer's Academy School go outside to play...especially when they get to blow bubbles. One day, one of the school helpers, Mrs. Edna, watched little Max as he managed to somehow swallow a bubble. His look of surprise and delight led to capturing the moment in poetry and illustrations. Educator and Author Kimberly was so inspired she wrote the verses in five minutes flat. She then collaborated with two other artists to capture the fun in illustrations. Now Mrs. Kimberly uses the book-which includes photos of all her students in her school-in order to spread fun and delight to other children and their parents.This is one of several pre-school books written by Stringer for use in her classroom. Most of her other children's books have a moral or follow a curriculum developed by this longtime educator. However, I Swallowed a Bubble is just plain silly fun, with no lesson other than how to bust out in helpless giggles when you try to hold onto something as delicate as a bubble.

Things I Wish I’d Known at 13
There are things I feel every female should be taught as they grow into young women, things they will value their entire lives. It would seem like common sense that the most important and especially sensitive things females should know would come from the females closest to them. But sometimes, that just doesn't happen and the information comes from people you meet on your journey through life. I've had some wonderful female mentors, teachers, friends and role models over the years who've helped me through things only another female can. With the use of technology, especially cell phones, people have lost some basic communication skills over the years. Many people don't even like to talk, they would rather text or send an email. But so much is lost in translation with these methods. My belief is that young people truly want to be guided, even though they may act like they don't and rebel and fight against it at times. But when they don't get this guidance at all, or see that adults are reluctant to address certain things or worse avoid any conflict or difficult situations at all by just giving them whatever they want or turning a blind eye, teens lose even more respect for adults. So, I felt the need to find a way to provide some of this guidance in a format that's easy to access, understand, share and use. They are things I would readily communicate to any young woman I'd meet. They are things I wish had been shared with me when I was developing into a young woman. My goal is to help with the good, the bad, and some of the in between. And also help possibly take away some of the confusion, frustration and upsets of the beginning stages of becoming a woman.

Heartlight
I believe that all children are born full of light and love. But that is not what I see when I walk into schoolyards and kindergartens today.For many different reasons, too many children today find it necessary to dim their inner light from an early age. As adults who have access to our hearts, it is crucial we teach children that it is safe to glow, shine and share their beautiful inner light.Let's remind our children that we all carry the most amazing light in our hearts and that we can turn up this light and increase its glow whenever we need to. I wrote "HEARTLIGHT" for my book "The Monster Manual - for children who worry a lot". However, as I sensed that many more children (and parents) needed this meditation, I decided to publish it as a standalone meditation too. Inside this book you will find a meditation that will take you to your heart and teach you and your little Light Bearer to shine from within and send you healing light into every cell and fiber of your bodies. Remember, we all arrived on this beautiful planet as light and love. You too. And we can always return to that place within ourselves if we have lost our way in life, if the darkness has penetrated our castle. We are light and love. Let it shine.

Clemons Van Forer's Freedom
The story is about an enslaved man named Clemons Van Forer. Joshua, the author, wrote this story to give to his mother on Juneteenth. His grandmother read the story and felt it was worthy of publication.The main character, Clemons, had heard stories of a man named Tice Davids escaping to freedom from his owner. His owner said that Tice must have escaped through an underground railroad. Clemons dreamed of one day being able to escape with his family. But until that day, he found freedom through the love he and his family had for one another. The author, Joshua Augustus Clemons is eight years old who has been inspired by his parents and grandparents. The glossary of his book reads: Juneteenth is June 19th. Although slavery had ended, it marked the end of slavery for enslaved people in Texas. On June 19, 1865, Galveston, Texas received word that slavery had ended when Abraham Lincoln signed Proclamation of Emancipation freeing enslaved people on September 22, 1862. President Joe Biden signed it as a national holiday on June 17, 2021. The Underground Railroad was not a train railroad. The Underground Railroad was homes, churches, and businesses called stations. The people in these stations provided food and a place to hide for runaway enslaved people seeking freedom.People who helped enslaved people moved from one station to another were called conductors. Tice Davids was an enslaved person from Kentucky. In 1831, he escaped from his owner crossing the Ohio River. His owner chased him in a rowboat, but Tice got to shore before his owner. When his owner got to shore, he could not find Tice. When the owner returned home, he told people that Tice Davids must have escaped by an underground railroad. It is believed, by some people, this is how the Underground Railroad got its name.

My name is Elli and this book is about me! I'm 9 years old and I have ADHD. It can be hard having ADHD. Sometimes adults get angry at me when I'm not listening or when I have trouble with sitting still and concentrating. But I'm very talented and fun! In this book, I want to explain what it's like having ADHD, the bad and the good.Maybe another kid can read this book and realize that many others have ADHD, and even though it can be difficult you can still accomplish a lot of cool things...Especially if you understand your ADHD better!My friend Ari wrote this book after interviewing me, my mom, and my dad. But I helped decide which parts went into the book. But guess what... I also got to draw in the book! I'm very good at drawing, you see. If you pay attention, I'm sure you can find out which drawings are mine. Happy reading!"------CAST is an educational nonprofit organization that envisions a world where all learning experiences in school, the workplace, and life are intentionally designed to elevate strengths and eliminate barriers so everyone has the opportunity to grow and thrive.Published in collaboration with David Berman Communications.
Daddy Loves You
Drawn from years of working with children who have incarcerated parents, and their best teachers, this picture book addresses a shortage of stories for young children and their caregivers (loved ones, teachers, guidance counsellors, foster families, first responders, librarians, physicians, etc.) by focusing on parental incarceration and young children's uncertainty around these adult issues in a developmentally appropriate, non-triggering way. The characters are engaging role models who encourage children to see themselves represented, feel acknowledged, and identify strategies for coping & building resiliency. Teachers, and other caregivers, often find discussing children's questions and strong feelings surrounding parental incarceration difficult. This book is intended to help start healthy, healing conversations with children who have/have had an incarcerated family member (and their peers), in preschool through early elementary grades, with the goals of removing stigma, breaking down alienating barriers, and developing understanding and empathy in peers. A Shared Reading Scaffold to guide conversations, and additional reliable resources, are included at the back of the book.

Why Mommy Gets High
Finally a book for parents who choose to use marijuana as a way to relax and connect with their kids. For years, this natural stress reducer has been unfairly demonized.

Why Mommy Gets High, helps explains to families that marijuana used in moderation by adults is not some scary evil substance, but rather a potentially wonderful aid in helping parents to relax, connect, and enjoy their time together.
