But Aren't I Lucky That

"But Aren't I Lucky That..." is a fantastically illustrated children's book that helps kids learn to find and celebrate the positive as they work through everyday challenges. As we follow Tiger through his day we learn how to see the positive in difficult situations (cognitive reframing), that giving an act of kindness helps both the giver and the receiver (acts of kindness), how sticking with something even when it is hard makes us better (grit), and that being present in the moment helps us focus (mindfulness).
