Each of these burgeoning adults are called upon to play an inspirational role in Steve’s miracle. One must take the lead role, who will it be? By necessity, every heart transplant requires an abrupt and unforeseen tragedy, trading in a bad heart for a good one. One life is saved at the price of another. Grand plans and ambitions are halted to grant each heart transplant recipient the gift of life.

Are We Really That Different?
KIDS WILL BE KIDS All around the world kids will do what kids do! We may look different, yet we are still all the same. Let’s celebrate our similarities in everyday activities and actions. Are We Really That Different? Is a heartfelt message of equality, love and harmony. It expresses the wish we all have for our children to grow up in a loving, safe and wondrous world. Let’s come together and make this world a better place for us all. Why We Love it!“Through my many years’ experience in education I understand the power of a good book. A cleverlywritten story will be enjoyed on many levels. Chandni’s rhyming story – Are We Really That Different?is such a book. Children thoroughly enjoyed it as a shared story experience. This was evidencedby the smiles on their faces, the laughter in their voices and their high levels of engagement. Equally asimportant is this book’s ability to be used as a springboard for building individual character and positiveschool culture, which in turn can be used to make the world a better place. I thoroughly recommend it.”– Dr Lyn Bishop OAM, Founder and Former Principal/CEO of Sheldon College. “I have used Chandni’s book to help children reflect on the benefits of inclusive behaviours – benefits toothers and benefits to themselves. The children really connected with the message because of thelighthearted nature of the language and because they weren’t being hit over the head with the message.This more subtle and nuanced approach is always way more effective and sticks with the children longterm. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a text that they revisit with fondness throughout their older lives.The rhymes are delightful – and not overly predictable – eliciting all shades of emotion during the sharedstory telling. The beautiful illustrations capped everything off nicely. This is a book to be enjoyed onmultiple levels on many different occasions.– Rick Samuels, Director of Community Engagement of Sheldon College. “This book is a must read… It’s guaranteed to warm your heart and feed your soul.”– Michelle Luhrmann, Early childhood Teacher. “Chandni has written this children’s book with a beautiful message of love and value. The artwork showschildren of all nationalities accepting each other with love and kindness. The book has a rhythm andbeat all of its own telling a powerful message of friends and family and oneness within our world.”– Bernadette Barr, Lmus.A, Australian Kodaly Specialist. My Inspiration!I was inspired to write this book for my kids and all the other kids in the world that may feel different or are made to feel different because of the colour of their skin. The idea sparked after an incident where my little ones, at age four, were told they weren’t invited to a classmate’s birthday party because of their skin colour. I was deeply saddened and shocked that something like this could happen in this day and age. It was so disheartening for me to witness the insecurities creep up in my children after the incident. We are not born with prejudice or bias. These are, unfortunately, learned. It’s about time we change these misconceptions in people young and old. It’s never too late! Thus, we set forth to bring this message out into the world. In 2020, with the Black Lives Matter movement taking centre stage, and the first COVID lockdown, I was determined to make an impact and reach as many people as possible. The book is titled “Are We Really That Different?” My wish is that children all around the world can see themselves as being the same as other kids despite their colour differences and celebrate their individuality in their own unique ways. It’s partly written in rhyme (with the help of my little rhymers Annuska & Maikaa) and touches on topics of kindness, love, compassion, inclusion, acceptance, fun, and laughter. Read more$0.00$8.99 -
The Garden In My Heart: A book about sharing kindness, thankfulness and friendship (Created To Be)
“There is a secret garden inside every girl and boy, and there are special seeds to plant that will grow into joy.” The Garden in my Heart shares the timeless message that we reap what we sow and encourages children to plant good things in their heart. Through simple rhyming verse and sweet illustrations this thoughtful book expresses the idea that our heart is like a garden that can produce flowers of joy or weeds of jealousy and bitterness. Help the children in your life navigate their feelings and fill their heart with love, joy, kindness and peace. Customer Reviews ***** “This is a simple book with a deep message that has the potential to be a powerful parenting (or teaching) tool. What greater lesson can we pass on to our children (or students) than the fact that we will reap what we sow? With gentle pictures and simple rhyme, Rogers writes about the value of thankfulness, patience, friendship, and more. She addresses the need to tend to the garden in our hearts: to pull the weeds of bitterness or jealousy — and to plant good seeds and get good fruit.” “The Garden In My Heart is all about planting the ‘good seeds’ of character. We’ve read and re-read this one so many times. I love that it compares character traits to a garden, and how they require work and effort. Because it’s so true! I also love that she talks about weeds cropping up in our hearts and it’s up to us, as the gardeners to pluck them out. It’s so great, it’s all about how if you want these fruits, then you need to plant these seeds. In other words, if you want to be this type of person, these are the character traits you need to work on. I love it! I’ve recommended this book to so many friends.” “I’ve worked with kids with behavior issues in the past and one thing I noticed was that they didn’t want to have the behaviors they did, but they weren’t sure how to correct them. I love that this book talks about how those things happen and it’s up to us to change them, but it doesn’t put any shame around these feelings creeping up. I wish I had this book then, it’s a great tool to use to talk about emotions and positive character traits.” Free resources like lesson ideas, videos and colouring sheets available at createdtobe.com.au/resources Read more$0.00$4.99 -

Everybody Craps but What the Heck is That?
Everyone poops. Sure, but can you name them all? There are poops that ring the toilet like an anaconda snake. There are turds so big you’d think it was a brownie Bigfoot baked. Dookies come in lots of sizes. Some are thin and some are fat. You may think you’ve seen ‘em all, my friend. But what the heck is that?! Butt Beans. Fart Fritters. The Corn Dogger. Mount Crapatoa. The Armored Stank. And, of course, the infamous Flamin’ Hot Butt Pudding. You may have encountered each of these unique potty experiences. You just didn’t know what to call them. Until now! Everybody Craps but What the Heck is That? is the funny field guide to pooping you didn’t know you needed. While Tarō Gomi’s seminal work, Everyone Poops, set toddlers straight on exactly who poops (spoiler alert: everyone does), it left generations of children and adults with far more questions than answers. Questions like: What do you call a dookie with corn in it? Does green poop mean I’m dying? How, exactly, did that fit through my butthole? Does Everybody Craps but What the Heck is That? answer all your burning poop questions? Heck no. Just one, plus a lot of regular-temperature poop questions. Mostly, it will make you laugh out loud as you learn just the right words to explain your next spectacular bowel movement to friends and family. Wonderfully illustrated (without being gross), this rhyming picture book for all ages will have the 8-12-year-old crowd, especially, howling with laughter. SMART POTTY HUMOR FOR KIDS: While clearly not a traditional children’s picture book, discerning parents who appreciate clever writing will be happy to know that the worst words in this book are crap, heck, caca, and butthole. BATHROOM READER FOR ADULTS: Let’s face it. Pooping is funny whether you’re eight or eighty (research has shown that beyond the age of eighty, pooping is no longer a laughing matter). LAUGH and LEARN: Each turn of the page increases the reader’s poop knowledge, with definitions, eye-popping illustrations, and even a vocabulary recap with Professor Poop to help you become the #1 student of number two.
