Description
"Acclaimed as the Children's Book of the Year, a captivating tale that cultivates empathy, nurtures self-confidence, and inspires an attitude of appreciation in young minds. Help foster empathy, emotional intelligence, and social skills by introducing children to diverse perspectives, experiences, and a sense of gratitude for the blessings in their lives. Join Sophie, a young girl whose world was previously limited to the captivating glow of her iPad. This changes dramatically when she embarks on an extraordinary journey to the mesmerizing land of India, a place she knows only from storybooks. She encounters children from a humble mud colony in India's vibrant, colourful expanse. These children, despite their scarcity of possessions, carry an abundant joy that confounds and fascinates Sophie. Their deep-seated gratitude for life's little treasures ignites a spark in Sophie, setting her on a path of transformative self-discovery and wanting to make a difference in the world. Children Who Dance in the Rain is more than just a story―it's an intimate journey of self-realization and growth. What Sophie unravels in this enchanting land could change not just her perspective, but also how you perceive your world. In this enchanting tale, Sophie's transformation is profound. She learns to acknowledge and appreciate her own blessings―loving parents, a safe environment, and abundant resources. Sophie's journey is a testament that happiness isn't hinged on having ‘more’ but on the value we assign to what we already have. Sophie's journey helps us understand that our true wealth isn't measured by material possessions but by the gratitude we hold in our hearts. Through a revelation that opens her eyes wide, Sophie discovers that life extends far beyond the confines of her iPad screen. She harnesses a newfound confidence, realizing she has the potential to do so much more, to make a real difference in the world. True to one of its core themes about giving back, 100% percent of net proceeds from every fourth copy of Children Who Dance in the Rain will go to charities such as Save The Children, GiveWell and Bright Sparks School in Mohali, India, who are dedicated to providing educational opportunities for underprivileged children."--Amazon,Provided by publisher.
