The Tree in Me
Summary
A stunning and sensitive portrait of the strength within each of us and the nourishment we receive from the natural world, by the New York Times best-selling creator of the acclaimed My Heart and The Book of Mistakes Through poetic text, this picture book explores the various ways we as human beings are strong, creative, and connected to others. Each of us is like a tree, with roots and fruit, and an enduring link to everything else in nature. "The tree in me is strong. It bends in the wind, and has roots that go deep...to where other roots reach up toward their own trunk-branch-crown and sky." As Corinna Luyken did in her award-winning My Heart, she again provides an invigorating conversation-starter that contains a world of truths - about self-esteem, community, and living a meaningful life.

The Book of Mistakes
Summary
Zoom meets Beautiful Oops! in this memorable debut about the creative process and the way in which "mistakes" can blossom into inspiration One eye was bigger than the other. That was a mistake. The weird frog-cat-cow thing? It made an excellent bush. And the inky smudges...they look as if they were always meant to be leaves floating gently across the sky. As one artist incorporates accidental splotches, spots, and misshapen things into her art, she transforms her piece in quirky and unexpected ways, taking listeners on a journey through her process. Told in minimal, playful lines, this story shows listeners that even the biggest “mistakes” can be the source of the brightest ideas - and that, at the end of the day, we are all works in progress, too. Fans of Peter Reynolds’s Ish and Patrick McDonnell’s A Perfectly Messed-Up Story will love the funny, poignant, completely unique storytelling of The Book of Mistakes. And, like Oh, the Places You’ll Go!, it makes the perfect graduation gift, encouraging listeners to have a positive outlook as they learn to face life’s obstacles.

My Heart empowers listeners of all ages to listen to the guide within in this ode to love and self-acceptance.
