Children's Books for the Way America Lives
Soon to be available from We Are Traverse
City, Inc.
Books
can sometimes help children understand feelings they´re
having or problems they are encountering in their everyday
lives. A book that treats an issue a child is dealing with
helps that child understand that he or she is not alone. And
books on disabilities, social problems, or diseases can also
help children understand and be more sensitive to what others
might be going through. Our books cover a wide range of topics
including adoption, Down syndrome, asthma, and the loss of
a loved one.
Proceeds
will be used to support our advocacy and mission : pure water,
real food, clean air, safe schools, and a safe & livable
community for all in Traverse City.
