Aiden's lesson: The power of words and kindness
Do you want to teach your child that words have consequences? Do you want them to think before they speak - not because someone told them to, but because they discovered that words travel further than they ever imagined?
Telling children to be careful what they say doesn't work. Showing them exactly what a careless comment does after it leaves their mouth - that's what changes behaviour permanently.
This children's book about actions and consequences does exactly that.
Aiden's Lesson is the children's actions and consequences picture book that gets it right - showing your child exactly what watching words travel feels like from the inside. This children's book about consequences and accountability burns one truth into every child who reads it: words travel. They always travel further than you think.
Meet Aiden. Seven years old. A careless comment to one friend. By the end of the day it has travelled through the entire class.
Aiden watches the classmate sit alone at lunch - shoulders hunched - and feels a cold heavy sinking in his chest.
He walks across the room. Sits down. Says sorry.
On the last page Aiden looks directly at your child:
"I didn't think it would go anywhere. It went everywhere. Now I think about where my words are going before I let them leave."
