As some of you may know, my sister & I have acquired J.O.T. journals & one of those journals will be aimed at helping kids learn the skills to start journals and create an awareness of moods & emotions as they grow up. Here's a sample of some of the books we have curated to go along with our journal; I hope you enjoy it! 
(Side note: You can support me & my family by buying these books on Amazon using my store ID: katielynnstor-20 or the link below; thanks in advance!)

5. ​

This book round-up came as a result of looking for ways to help my daughter, who is battling low self-esteem...as a 5-year-old. We try hard to say positive things to her, encourage her to say prayers & thank God for what He has given her, & she's just not buying into it. So I thought maybe someone else's words (that we read) would help her out. And I hope these books help you out too!

That time of year has already rolled around-- the school year is starting in less than a month! And for the very first time, I am sending a child to school...every day. I'm just so grateful he's only doing half-day M-F in kindergarten. That's about all I can handle, especially when it adds to our pickup/dropoff schedule & means not having him home all the time. Do you know a kindergartner or have one at home? Here are some good picture books to share with them, in case they're anxious to start school!
