How Will You Make a Difference? Boxed Set: Trying; Noticing; Caring

Empower and inspire young readers with this illuminating collection of stories by New York Times bestselling author Kobi Yamada and artist Elise Hurst. Each of the three books--Trying, Noticing, and Caring--share a unique and powerful life lesson, from resilience, to perspective, to deep empathy and compassion.

What if one person can make a difference? And what if that one person was you? This mentorship-themed boxed set includes three stunning and powerful children's books--Trying, Noticing, and Caring--inviting young readers to try new things, look with their heart, and remember all the good they can put into the world.

Each book features an older, accomplished mentor and a young person just beginning their journey of discovering their talents:

• Trying A kind sculptor invites an aspiring apprentice to realize that failure is an important part of the process.
• Noticing An accomplished painter and her young protégé explore the forest and discover the joy in slowing down to observe the world's wonders.
• Caring A young boy and a devoted gardener reflect on a desolate piece of land the mentor transformed into a lush oasis.

The detailed artwork in every book features hidden and whimsical details, a signature element of the series. From shadowy lions watching with care, to cloud horses galloping across the sky, to stone sculptures peeking through a waterfall, every page invites readers to take a closer look. As you move through each rich scene, the mentors offer their unique wisdom--and each book culminates with a forever-valuable lesson that will guide readers for years to come.
