A Pocketful of Virtues, Book One is an engaging and insightful rhyming book for children that introduces several impactful virtues and provides a foundation for conversations about what they mean in a child's everyday life. Book One of the four book series introduces the following virtues: Kindness, Perseverance, Curiosity, and Patience.
Believing that virtues help to form a child's character, this book provides a way to introduce and talk about these characteristics through age appropriate examples and illustrations. Virtues are often learned through imitation and habit and unfortunately not every child has a positive family role model. Written by an admittedly fallible author, the content introduces virtues without judgment. It is the author's hope to expose more children to these virtues via other adults, educational institutions, community programs, and from their peers as well.
The book does not have any religious references and is accessible and appropriate for groups of children from various cultures. A Pocketful of Virtues focuses on universal behaviors that children could aspire to that will have a positive impact on their lives and the lives of others.
Recognizing that virtues can be interpreted and taught in various ways, the book is meant to provide a foundation for a thoughtful discussion with a trusted source so that the children can formulate their own ideals and behaviors.
The completed series will cover sixteen virtues; four in each book. Book One is complete and Books Two - Four will be completed by January 2021. The following virtues will be introduced in Books Two, Three and Four:
Book Two- A Pocketful of...
Respect * Courage * Honesty * Fairness
Book Three- A Pocketful of...
Responsibility * Compassion * Gratitude * Generosity
Book Four- A Pocketful of...
Forgiveness * Loyalty* Authenticity * Humility
