EXPERIENCES THAT BUILD CHARACTER
Empowering Children One Book at a Time
Our series explores some of the virtues, values, and experiences that help us grow as humans. Each book is a journey of discovery, watching the characters learn, understand, and choose the virtues and values that help them live with greater purpose and joy.
We hope these stories—and the activities that support them—will assist parents, guardians, grandparents, schools and churches as they strive to build strong families and humans.
