Joy

This book explores the concept of JOY through the eyes of a child. Ellie is a curious five-year-old girl with an adorable dog named Rose and lots of questions. JOY is explained to Ellie as a feeling of happiness achieved by acts of kindness and compassion. Honesty, mindfulness, and gratitude are key components of JOY. Additionally, the importance of recognizing your own gifts is essential to spread JOY in the world. In an age of social media and outside influences, Dr. Lisa Norman emphasizes the importance of basic human virtues to promote goodness in the early development of our precious children.
