This, my first children's book, is inspired by heartfelt conversations with my grandchildren and my work exploring the values that build benevolent communities. This story grew from a shared wish: that the world might root itself in humanity to build a kinder society.
The lyrical story has parable qualities and begins when a dark cloud drifts over a small town, a group of friends notices that fear has begun to take hold. By standing together, the children remember the light within-the hope, kindness, and care that can lift the darkness and light a new way.
Through courage and shared humanity, the children discover that living with kindness and harmony, and joining together can brighten their community's spirit-and the world-beginning with BENE - the simple act of wishing another well.
One, Two, Three BENE! is a lyrical picture book and modern parable that invites children, families, and classrooms to explore timeless values and imagine the brighter, kinder world we can create together.
This modern parable (ages 8-12), and lyrical picture book (ages 4-8) invites children, families, and classrooms to explore timeless values and to imagine the brighter world we can build together.
