George Green has written a number of children’s books, all of which have character-building messages for young children. Patience is certainly a virtue most young children need to learn. Come Christmas, Easter, Birthdays and other special days, it can be difficult for parents to keep surprises from them! George wrote this book with the hope that it would show young kids how important being patient really is, and that the benefits can sure outweigh the often tedious wait. The best example - of course - is Charlie, the caterpillar who could not wait to become a butterfly! When Charlie first crawls out of his egg, all he wants to do is be a butterfly. While most butterflies know how long it takes to change from a caterpillar into a butterfly, Charlie was not born with this patience! But, as he eats and grows and eats and grows, his mother reminds him that he does have this important skill, the bottom-line of which is that all good things come to those who wait!

Eddie the Elephant who Lost his Trunk is the fifteenth book that George has written for children. Like with all of his other stories, this one tells of an animal who has something taken from him, leaving him with a disability. Eddie is left angry at the one who took his trunk. But with help and love from his friends and family, and the decision to understand the ways of alligators, he is able to live a long and happy life, free from anger and resentment. His story shows us that we can rely on those we love, and that choosing to understand our enemies can bring some relief to the heart.

Not only was he abused, he was attacked by a Mountain Lion as well. One day, however, his life changed forever when a beautiful horse rescuer, Tiffany, and her mother decided to dedicate their time to helping him. As a horse with no hope only a few months before joining Tiffany on the farm, with four other horses, his transformation is unbelievable as he learns to trust and live life again to the fullest. Of course, he could not have done this without the love Tiffany gave him from the start.
