Leon, the Tree and the Spiral (Paperback)

Self-generated or random change can be challenging for children and adults, however, for children there is the added layer of having little control over change since they are often the recipients of decisions prompted by the adults in their lives. Why is this change giving me anxiety? Why do I feel scared? How can I handle this change? May be many of the thoughts children experience when facing change. One of life's greatest lesson, as the Greek philosopher Heraclitus said, is embracing that "the only constant in life, is change." Therefore, recognizing when change is happening, learning to feel excited about change or at least learning to manage it, is an important life lesson for children of all ages. In the book, we find Leon the lion, encountering some visual puns amidst colorful and fun pages as his favorite tree, The Tree of Change, helps him understand the spiral of "change."
