The journey of a dog s life begins with her sudden arrival as a puppy. We watch as she earns her name, takes her first bath and chews her way around the house. As she grows we penetrate her eyes, learn her moods, observe her quirks and witness her loyalty. When she unexpectedly falls ill and dies, we feel the grief a family goes through. Grief then transitions to reverence as we reflect on how Spirit and all dogs teach us lessons of life and love that stay in our hearts long after they die. With humor and tender reflection, Robert W. Kurkela describes a dog who embodied an unforgettable mix of joy, compassion, adventure and mischief. The spiritually uplifting and sensitive verse is thought provoking and is accompanied by whimsical, light-hearted illustrations. Still Her Spirit Sings will appeal to parents and children of all faiths who have mourned the loss of a beloved animal.
Everyone gets angry, so it’s never too early for children to learn to recognize feelings of anger, express them, and build skills for coping with anger in helpful, appropriate ways. Children learn that it is okay to feel angry—but not okay to hurt anyone with actions or words. They discover concrete skills for working through anger: self-calming, thinking, getting help from a trusted person, talking and listening, apologizing, being patient, and viewing others positively. Reassuring and supportive, the book helps preschool and primary-age children see that when they cool down and work through anger, they can feel peaceful again.

Lighthearted yet supportive and frank, this book helps readers learn to make thoughtful, deliberate, positive behavior decisions. Behavior issues addressed include small ones, like talking or blurting out in class, as well as bigger ones, such as fighting.
"Watch Me Do Yoga" uses upbeat text and appealing illustrations, to capture the joy and fun of doing yoga for kids aged 3 to 8. In "Watch Me Do Yoga", we listen to a child's voice as she goes through a series of yoga poses. We see her practicing sometimes with her dad, her mum, or the family dog, and sometimes alone on her mat. We see her in the garden, on the patio, in her bedroom, even sitting on a gigantic lotus. But no matter what the setting, she relates her yoga to the natural world. She stands like a tree or a mountain and imitates the actions of animals - a fish, a dog, a lion, and a tortoise. She celebrates her connection with the life around her and wants just a bit of attention in return. The upbeat text and appealing illustrations should encourage young children to practice yoga, and their parents to practice with them.
