Tia Takes a Pause

"When you learn to take a few deep breaths and pay attention to how you are feeling, it helps you make healthy choices, like giving your body what it needs and taking breaks when you're hot and tired."

Tia is having a great day! She's helping Dwight with the community garden and planting seeds that will grow into yummy fruits and vegetables. All of a sudden, she doesn't feel good and remembers that she didn't eat breakfast, forgot her water bottle, and left her sun hat at home! She and Dwight take a break, and Tree gives them some shade and refreshing apples. With Dwight's and Tree's help, Tia realizes that taking care of her body is the most important thing-even more important than having fun.

With advice from Tree and Dwight, children will learn how to make sure their bodies are ready for whatever the day may hold. Tia learned that lesson the hard way, but after reading Tia Takes a Pause, you'll be prepared to take care of yourself every day! With new discussion questions and advice on putting your body's needs first, Tia Takes a Pause adds a new spin to this encouraging series for young readers.
