This is a book about wonder and about questioning what we think we know. By the time we become adults, we think we know quite a lot. Facts and theories all prop up our idea of the world and how it should work, but do we really know, or are we just trying to make ourselves feel secure?In Everybody Knows What a Tree Is, children talk their way through what they think they know - the uses for trees, the fun to be had, and the amazing scientific facts about them.

A playful, read-aloud exploration of all the different thoughts we have every day and their role in our lives.“Sharks rule!” “That’s gross.” “I love tofu.” “Is she from Montreal?” Whether our thoughts are happy, sad, scared, excited, or worried, they come in a constant flow. Through playful rhyming text and vivid, fun illustrations, Just a Thought introduces kids 4–8 to the way our lives are shaped by our thoughts. The story helps to teach self-awareness by recognizing negative self-thought and recurring thought patterns. Regardless of whether you have happy, weird, or mean thoughts―they are all just thoughts, and no single thought can define you. The magic of mind is that it's a space where anything is possible!
