The Garden in My Mind: Growing Through Positive Choices

By Stephie McCumbee

Maci and Trey love to have fun but will their choices keep them from growing a garden in their mind?

Join Maci as she learns the importance of ignoring distractions and making positive choices with help from her mom, her teacher, and a new friend.

Using a garden metaphor, the author explains how to ignore distractions, take responsibility for your behaviors and make better choices. This richly illustrated picture book offers valuable life lessons to young readers so they can grow their garden in school and at home.

Tips for parents, counselors and educators are also included. There is also a companion workbook with activities that help develop social skills. Look for The Garden in My Mind Activity Guide to drive home the lessons.
