Through a simple conversation between a boy and a tree,
country-music star Granger Smith shares an incredibly powerful and
deeply moving story filled with life lessons on loss, grief, and
the strength gained in finding the light and the will to move
forward with joy and purpose. In this wonder-filled and inspiring
story of surprising loss but found strength, a boy encounters a red
oak who shares forest wisdom about the rich soil and the nourishing
sun, pointing the boy toward a simple truth about moving on: we
must grow toward the light. With breathtaking artwork from Laura
Watkins, this picture book is for ages 4 to 8; is a message of hope
and strength that is passed through generations; shares the value
of pain, grief, and reaching out of the darkness toward the light;
and is perfect for fans of The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the
Horse; The Velveteen Rabbit; The Invisible String or other beloved
stories that teach life lessons through simple but profound
moments. As you settle into the soothing nature of Granger's
storytelling, let this meaningful interaction between a boy and a
tree guide you toward the purpose and goodness of life.
Shortlisted for the Business Book Awards 2022 Many of us are
striving to reach our full potential at work and beyond - to
achieve our goals, rise to challenges and connect well with others.
But how can we actively develop our performance, while also taking
care of our well-being and life satisfaction? The Performance Curve
is a ground-breaking guide to success and happiness in both work
and life. Rather than telling you what to do, this book allows you
to come up with a roadmap for evolving your inner operating system
(your mindsets, emotions and habits) for your unique circumstances.
Crucially, this book explores both how you can improve individual
performance and how to build relationships and cultures that bring
out the best others. By interweaving individual and collective
development, this approach is transformational for building
leadership and organizational performance. The Performance Curve is
a powerful combination of neuroscience, psychological research and
practical guidance. These concepts are then brought to life through
the stories of remarkable individuals from different sectors,
including business, the arts, academia and not-for-profits. Laura
Watkins and Vanessa Dietzel draw upon their vast experience and
research as consultants and leadership coaches to deliver a
ground-breaking guide to enhancing your performance in your life
and career.
