Review:

If you ever wondered how, you could make change in the world, it can happen with one simple step or action to get you going. In this story readers will follow a young boy who thinks he is too small to make a difference. His journey starts with one simple seed in a garden. Soon he breaks down walls, makes friends and with his actions perpetuates the movement of making a difference. 

Author Susan Verde shares a simplistic way of making big change. Her stories are thought provoking in a way that young readers and listeners can grasp. The art by Peter H. Reynolds is bright, cheery and provides a rainbow vibe young readers will gravitate towards. Parents and teachers can use this as a tool for kids to take action moving one step at a time. This book inspires plenty of activities for kids to take their first steps. The authors note in that back shares’ mindfulness techniques.
