Books in A Helping Hand series

Most young people are familiar with superheroes, but in real life, it's the ordinary heroes that walk among us that really make a difference. Readers of this engaging volume learn that there's more to being a hero than being able to fly or having other superpowers. Being kind, helping others, or doing what's right even when it's tough are all things that make for pretty good, real-life heroes. Relatable characters are truly engaging through colorful illustrations, while age-appropriate text encourages readers to make positive, helpful decisions in their own lives.

Whenever Katie thinks about her parents' separation, she has an empty feeling inside. Was it her fault? Will she have to choose between the two most important people in her life? But slowly she realizes that her parents are happier apart-and that no matter what, some things will never change: she loves her dad and mom very much, and they will always love her back.

Two stories in one! Going to the doctor or dentist for the first time can be scary to a child-but this book offers comfort and reassurance by gently explaining exactly what will happen in both situations. First, children follow Jacob as a nurse gives him an injection, and then they hear about Sophie's experience visiting the dentist for her first checkup. It's the perfect pre-appointment book.
