About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels small in a big world or is beginning to notice that things around them could be better, kinder, or greener. It is the perfect choice for a quiet moment when you want to nurture a sense of agency and hope in a young heart. Seeds of Change is a lyrical, poetic exploration of how tiny actions can lead to monumental shifts. Through the metaphor of gardening, it teaches children that they possess the power to plant kindness, patience, and beauty in their own communities. The book avoids a heavy-handed moral, instead using rhythmic verse and evocative imagery to show that every person is a gardener of their own life and world. It is ideally suited for children ages 4 to 8 who are developing their sense of self and their relationship to the environment and others.
