The Art Mill's New Children's Book Offers a Fun Way to Teach Kids Responsibility

Dec. 27, 2012 - PRLog -- Building character in kids is a passion behind the books The Art Mill has been producing this year. Their first book, titled One Pea, focuses on the value of gratitude while their latest book, One Tree, focuses on responsibility. In One Tree, author and illustrator, Marie Tabler, worked to create a character building story for children and adults to enjoy. As the story teaches responsibility, reading to children also demonstrates responsibility for a fun two-fold lesson.

In the story, instead of storing acorns for winter, a carefree squirrel named Stick enjoys eating junk food all summer. In the winter, he depends on the food his family saved and he learns the value of saying “I’m sorry” and forgiveness. The story continues when none of the squirrels can find enough food to eat and Stick sees a courageous way to make up for his irresponsibility.

The illustrations that accompany the text add humor and help create an inspiring story for kids to see that when someone makes a wrong choice, they can still come back and do the right thing. One Tree is available in both paperback and ebook versions.
