Stories entertain and educate children of all ages. As we use our imaginations to become actors in the story, we gain empathy for each character and grow our own capability to share compassion.
We consider how characters react and see ways to build relationships with others who need help or acknowledgement. We recognize others do not always have the love and support of their families.
Wendy Reardon shares the stories she has told her children and now grandchildren. In each story, she presents a situation we might ourselves encounter, being lost, interactions with grumpy adults, or playground bullies.
In each story, Wendy shares words from Scripture and appropriate prayers to provide models for our children and ourselves. Wendy guides us into appropriate reassurances for our daily lives.
