In terms of resilience and well-being, hope is a critically important predictor of success. This creative story from the best-selling author of My Mouth is a Volcano!, and Bubble Gum Brain, reminds children that dark clouds can be temporary and asking for help is always okay. We all have times when we need to borrow a little hope from someone else.\n\"When your clouds get too dark,\nand too heavy to push away,\nReach out and ask, \"Can I borrow some light?\nI'm having a really bad day.'\"\n\"It's always okay to admit to yourself,\n'I just can't do it today.\nEveryone needs somebody sometimes,\nto help them find their way.'\"\nSometimes the dark clouds overhead seem too heavy and you feel like giving up. Little candle knows all about this. Bad grades, blasted on social media, worried about making the team, and wondering who her real friends are - so many hard things to deal with! All she can see is darkness. But her story begins to change when someone notices she needs a boost of hope. As little candle is reminded she has purpose and her own unique gifts, and that she isn't the only one with dark clouds, her dim light begins to shine brighter.\nThis hopeful story emphasizes for children (and adults) the many different ways to ask for help, and their ability to be a hope builder for others, too.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1937870529\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.1937870529.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cook, Julia|Haley, MacKenzie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in excellent condition.
