Jisel's Gifts
(Ultra Premium Color Interior Paper)
Follow a thoughtful little girl named Jisel in this heartfelt true story as she discovers there are children less fortunate than she is and embarks on a mission to do something about it. She even convinces her friends and peers to participate in donating new toys or stuffing stockings. This touching tale demonstrates the beauty of kindness and the incredible impact small acts can have on a community. Jisel's story aims to encourage empathy, creativity, teamwork, and a sense of responsibility in children by demonstrating that no act or person is too small to make a difference. Ignited by the spirit of generosity, young readers can't help but learn, grow, and find a cause of their own. The characters who help Jisel reflect a rich tapestry of backgrounds, inspiring readers to embrace diversity and inclusion as they embark on their journeys of giving
Children often acquire knowledge by observing adults. They learn to give back to their community when adults set positive examples. Role models can help instill a sense of responsibility, empathy, and compassion in children from a young age. This early exposure to giving back fosters a lifelong commitment to social responsibility and encourages a stronger, more connected community for the future. By participating in volunteer work or community service, children develop a deeper understanding of societal needs and the power they hold to make a positive impact. Engaging in activities that support the community teaches the value of helping others and nurtures essential life skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and communication.
