Leif and the Fall
Summary
Persistence and creativity can lead to amazing things, as Leif the leaf discovers in this lovely audiobook from Allison Sweet Grant and Adam Grant, the number one New York Times best-selling author of Originals. Leif is a leaf. A worried leaf. It is autumn, and Leif is afraid to fall. "All leaves fall in the fall," say the other leaves. But Leif is determined to find a different way down, and with his friend Laurel, he uses the resources around him to create a net, a kite, a parachute in hopes of softening his landing. The clock is ticking, the wind is blowing. What will happen when a gust of wind pulls Leif from his branch? In a culture that prizes achievement, kids are often afraid to fail - failing to realize that some of the very ideas that don't work are steps along the path to ones that will.

The Gift Inside the Box
Summary
Adam Grant, the best-selling author of Give and Take, teams with his wife, Allison, to share the lighthearted tale of a gift in search of a giver - a classic in the making and the perfect conversation starter about thoughtfulness. This delightful audiobook - one of Amazon's 2019 Holiday Gift Picks and Most Anticipated Books - is designed to start conversations with kids about generosity. In the tradition of Goodnight Gorilla, the words are intentionally spare. The audiobook is meant to be listened to interactively, with adults posing questions so kids can guess what's happening (and why). Praised by both parents and teachers for sparking imagination and eliciting discussion, the story can be interpreted differently in every family, by every child, and reinterpreted many times over. Give the gift of this clever, earnest audiobook about generosity - a new and nourishing fable for every child's library. It's a gift that keeps on giving. "Truly phenomenal...Kristen [Bell]'s favorite book we've read to the kids in a year." (Dax Shepard of the podcast Armchair Expert)
