  Memory Tree : A Holiday Grief Book

  $18.99

  From the author and illustrator of The Memory Box, the best-selling children’s book about grief, comes a new picture book to help and comfort families celebrating their first holiday season after the loss of a loved one.

  Grief is challenging for children and families any time of year, but during Christmas or other family-focused holidays, the death of a loved one can bring especially difficult feelings. In The Memory Tree, a child struggles with the recent loss of a loved one. Holiday lights don’t seem to shine as bright, and celebrations don’t feel quite as merry. But then she and her family find a way to commemorate their lost loved one: the decoration of a special Memory Tree, which allows them all to process their feelings and make the person a meaningful part of their celebrations. Joanna Rowland’s sensitive writing and Thea Baker’s beautiful illustrations gently prompt reflections and suggestions for readers to create their own Memory Trees at home.

  A grief book and heartwarming Christmas story in one, The Memory Tree provides comfort to grieving families–whether for the first holiday celebrated after the loss of a loved one, or many years later.

  Ly-Lan And The New Class Mix Up

  $8.99

  Sometimes things don’t turn out the way we plan! In this chapter book series about a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, Ly-Lan navigates her life as a new third grader–complete with old and new friends, unexpected (and disappointing) changes at home and school, and finding a way to thrive.

  Third grade is not starting the way Ly-Lan pictured. First, her best friend Cece is put in another class–even after Ly-Lan prayed they would be in the same one. And then Ly-Lan is tasked with showing the new Vietnamese student around. Ly-Lan wants to hang out with Cece, not play translator to the new girl, and she doesn’t understand why her prayers aren’t being answered. If Ly-Lan is going to flourish in third grade, she must learn to trust in God’s plans, especially when it means making some adjustments to her own.

  Ly-Lan and the New Class Mix-up:

  *Is the first in a series of illustrated early chapter books about Ly-Lan, a third grader tackling familiar themes like friendship, overcoming obstacles, and navigating changes in life with grace

  *Perfect for kids ages 6 and up or reluctant or emerging readers just starting to read chapter books on their own.

  *Is an encouraging read for reluctant readers with its illustrated chapters.

  *Is written by Vietnamese American author Ha Dinh, creator of HappyDaysinFirstGrade.com and @hellomrsdinh on Instagram

  Being Thankful

  $5.99

  Join Little Critter as he learns why it’s important to be thankful for what he has-not to be upset about what he doesn’t.

Tommy Nelson is thrilled to bring this beloved brand to the Christian market with the Inspired Kids line of faith-based books featuring Little Critter.

  In Being Thankful, Little Critter isn’t getting anything he wants. Gator gets cool brand-new sneakers, while Little Critter is stuck with his boring blue ones. Tiger’s dad has a boat-but not Little Critter’s dad. And even at the ice cream shop, Little Critter can’t enjoy his chocolate ice cream cone because he would rather have a huge ice cream sundae instead. But on a trip to the farm, Grandma shows Little Critter why thankfulness is so important and helps make any situation seem so much happier.

  Based on Psalm 107:1, this book will show children what gratitude is and why we should be thankful for all of the blessings God has given us.
