Each book and every story are intended to motivate, build confidence and to assure a child they are not alone when or if, they find themselves dealing with an uncomfortable situation. It also encourages children to embrace being inquisitive and not be afraid to ask questions.A child may not remember every fun detail they experienced growing up, but they will remember the one thing that made them smile when they were dealing with an issue that shattered their little world... And that's the objective for "What it means to be Me." We can't shelter our youth from problems, but a good story that understands what you're going through and can make you laugh, will help a little.
