The titles range from I am Generous to I Can Make Good Choices. There are 8 titles total. Thanks Jesse for the Swimmy suggestion!

That is a great one, with simple, artful illustrations and a moving story. The Wellstone tie-in makes it even more endearing. Thanks for that :) I just started Three Cups of Tea, so I'll have to pick up Listen to the Wind. Good tips! I forgot about Swimmy!

Great message about a group of tiny fish who learn that organizing together can make a big difference. My daughter's copy is from the late great Paul Wellstone, who used to read this book to children at school events. We also like Listen to The Wind by Greg Mortenson. This is the children's version of Three Cups of Tea. My kids love the real photos at the end of the book. Swimmy by Leo Lionni.
