Do you want to teach your child to keep promises? Do you want them to honour their word - not because someone was watching, but because they discovered that a promise kept is the most powerful thing one person can give another?
Telling children to keep promises doesn't work. Showing them exactly what a promise means to the person receiving it - that's what changes behaviour permanently.
This children's promise keeping book does exactly that.
The power of a promise is the children's promise keeping picture book that gets it right - showing your child exactly what honouring a promise feels like from the inside. This children's book about keeping promises and integrity burns one truth into every child who reads it: a promise kept is the most powerful thing one person can give another.
Meet Priya. Seven years old. She promised her best friend - front row - at her very first gymnastics performance. Then a birthday party invitation arrived.
Priya puts the invitation down. Shows up. Front row. Exactly where she said.
Her friend walks out. Finds Priya sitting there. Her face does something Priya has never seen before - pure overwhelming relief.
On the last page Priya looks directly at your child:
I almost chose the party. But I saw her face when she found me there. A promise kept is the most powerful thing one person can give another.
What your child gains:
- The understanding that a promise is something another person holds onto - the most powerful children's promise keeping lesson any children's promise keeping picture book delivers
- One sentence they carry forever: a promise kept is the most powerful thing one person can give another
