Welcome to Litsy!

Happy Sunday, Littens! 🎉 I wanted to share some exciting news—our book-loving family just got a little bigger! 📚 A wonderful friend and colleague, @TreenaReads has joined the Litsy crew! Let‘s give her the warmest welcome and show her all the literary love we‘ve got! 💖📖

A children's book that portrays care and humanity
To overcome a crisis, a person needs to allow themselves to experience the full range of emotions that arise and receive validation through the empathy of others
When giving advice, people tend to take less ownership of their feelings and their healing process
But when they share and experience their emotions, they take ownership, enabling healing
Our empathy makes this possible
So touching!

Maddi‘s Fridge is a tender, eye-opening story that teaches children about poverty, compassion, and standing up for others in difficult situations.

Maddi‘s family doesn‘t have enough food, and Sofia notices that Maddi‘s fridge is always empty. Despite her concerns, Sofia promises to keep Maddi‘s secret, but she knows she can‘t stand by without helping.

Just realized my nails match my bookmark…talk about accessorizing. 🤣

“I‘m so thirsty,” said the skunk.
“Have a drink,” said the stream.
