    Brave

    $19.99

    Brave, the second book in the Lessons of a LAC series, provides kids with a strategy for how to face things that worry them.

However, the technique of helping children to ‘find their brave’ can be applied to any challenging situation.

  • The Incurable Imagination

    The Incurable Imagination

    $24.99

    Audrey has the worst case of ‘imaginitis’ her teachers have ever seen! While other children paint their families, Audrey paints the ogre who lives under her bed drinking tea. Instead of singing about a black sheep, she writes her own song about a desk with legs that runs away. Her alphabet turns into soup. It’s clear that her ‘imaginitis’ is incurable. What’s worse, her condition is contagious and soon the other kids in her class start showing symptoms of an equally incurable imagination! As ‘imaginitis’ spreads, the teachers are horrified and the parents begin to protest too. But perhaps imagination isn’t such a bad disease after all? It might even be useful if it makes learning more fun.
