"I''ve tried asking grown-ups to explain God, but they aren''t very good at it."
Explaining who God is can be really hard. Especially for grown-ups. They like to use confusing words like "Trinity," "outside of time," and "everywhere all at once." What''s a kid to do if they can''t explain God? Maybe it''s not such a problem after all. The little girl in this story realizes there are so many things in the world that are hard to explain, but not hard to accept. Like how people speak in many languages; how the sun is a color, a feeling, and also light; and how people in her family have different names for each other. So what if you can''t explain God? What matters is that God loves you--and that''s not confusing at all!
In this new picture book by the author of Maybe God Is Like That Too, children will learn that accepting a bit of mystery is part of what it means to have faith.

"Let nature be your teacher when your feelings are tangled up in knots."
One way to feel better when we are hurting is to spend time outside. Being in nature is good for both our bodies and our minds.

From dandelions to spider webs, children will uncover the lessons nature teaches about embracing a growth mindset, the benefits of living in community, and the transformative power of noticing the beauty around them. Breathing exercises, stretching, practicing mindfulness, and keeping a nature notebook are just some of the tools introduced to kids to equip them to navigate their feelings as they spend time outdoors.
Author Jennifer Grant''s affirming, kind voice will inspire readers to see the world with fresh eyes--and discover the calm, joy, and wonder waiting just outside their door.
