Perfect for children ages 4-12, Wrapper for President uses the adventures of a blue gift wrapping tube named June to encourage kids to dream big, set meaningful life goals, and achieve their goals no matter what history, culture, or detractors might say to discourage them. It also aims to teach kids (and parents) some new, challenging vocabulary...The story: June the Tube is a friendly and respected resident of the land of Giftagoo. She is looking for ways to make a bigger difference in her community and calls in her good friend and life coach, Clyde the Sloth, to help her dream louder. After careful consideration, June decides that she is going to run for President of Giftagoo so she can help those who are struggling and to make Giftagoo the best place to live. But when she excitedly tells her "friends" about her dream and her goals, they do not support her like she thought they would. In fact, all they do is tell her how she has no chance to become President of Giftagoo because of her limitations (finances, history, gender, etc.). But June doesn't let these realities and discouragements stop her from going after her big dream. And with Clyde alongside her, she runs a successful political campaign and becomes President of Giftagoo. As President, June, with the help of her Vice President Clyde, makes Giftagoo the best place to live and helps its people live their best lives. June is a reminder to all of us that we cannot let anything or anyone discourage us from chasing meaningful dreams.

Dean the Bean gets a Screen is an entertaining, fun, and engaging story with a purpose, written in a memorable Seuss-like rhyme. Perfect for children ages 4-10, this book offers an easy way for parents to introduce their kids to the vital issue of "screen addiction" through a likeable character named Dean the Bean. While written for kids, the book serves as a reminder to us all that we are human beings with lives worth living and opportunities to experience--not just "Do-Nothing Beans" addicted to our favorite virtual leash. The story: Dean is a cute, bored bean who wants excitement in his life. When he discovers the joys and encompassing fascination offered by various electronic platforms/screens (televisions, computers, cell phones, etc.), he forfeits his real life for life 'on the screen.' Dean soon gets addicted to his screens and his real life suffers. At last he realizes that his virtual-world has lost its color, but he finds his way back to the beauty of real-life when he steps away from his screens and their 'make-pretend existence.' Dean encourages us all to put our screens in 'time-out' from time-to-time so we can experience the joys that await us when we unplug from their influence. Screens are fun and useful, but they can take over our lives if we're not careful. Dean the Bean is like The Social Dilemma for kids-it sounds the warning in a hilarious format that children can understand.
