Books with author Ardis Glace

How do you "teach" perseverance to a child? Discover a charming and inviting way to show children the importance of perseverance and the impact it can have on one's life through this delightful and insightful chapter book. During twins Max and Mollie's first trip to the beach they discover a world of wildlife and fish they have only read about in books. Not only does their Granddad teach them about the many ecosystems of an ocean, but they find many beautiful treasures brought in by the ocean's waves. Are their discoveries priceless diamonds and rubies? Old pirate treasure? Or toss away trash? Be a part of Max and Mollie's encounter with Lily, the magical old woman whose special powers and insight teach a valuable life lesson. Her antics and stories help the twins learn about the power and magic that lies hidden in the sea's tossed and tumbled glass--and how it can impact their lives as children and even throughout adulthood. How can Lily's message be more valuable than any lost treasure of gold and gemstones? By illustrating the importance and power of patience, perseverance, "stick-to-it-iveness", and resiliance.

Twins Max and Mollie find beautiful and colorful treasures on the beach. Could they REALLY have found diamonds and rubies? Where did these gems come from? Perhaps they were dropped from a pirate ship hundreds of years ago or were buried nearby in an old treasure chest. Discover the magic that happens when their treasures lead them to a wise old woman whose magical powers and stories teach Max and Mollie a valuable lesson in character building. A lesson that is far more valuable than any treasures they might find or any pirate's gold or diamonds.
