Sunny's Choice: A Tale of Growth

By Valerie Hammond-Mena

Lily loves her little sunflower, Sunny. She waters it, cares for it, and hopes it will grow strong. But when Sunny begins to wilt, Lily feels sad and wonders if she did something wrong.

With the gentle guidance of Gardener Jane, Lily learns an important lesson-we can care for others, but they must choose to grow. And no matter what, we must keep growing too.

Inspired by my own journey, this book is for young people navigating family struggles like addiction, mental health issues, or other hardships. Through Lily's story, children will learn about love, resilience, and the power of hope-because just like flowers, we all have the strength to bloom in our own time
