Description

”I love the compassion you have in your spirit. It ripples out to the world and all who are near it.”

Your Joy is Beautiful is an endearing and affirming picture book that reminds children of the joy that exists within and around them, helping them feel seen and celebrated. Showcasing diverse families and children of all backgrounds, lived experiences, and abilities, it reveals the magic in the seemingly small – but sacred – everyday moments in our busy lives.

By giving children the language of compassion, kindness, and empathy, we can let them know that they are enough. That they are worthy and deserving of love just as they are.

Let’s remind them of the power they hold to create a ripple effect of good out into the world.

Perfect for use in the therapy office or early-learning classroom, and as a gift for baby showers, and birthdays, Your Joy Is Beautiful is an awe-inspiring book for all children and their adults.

”I love the compassion you have in your spirit. It ripples out to the world and all who are near it.”
