New Thinking That Will Rock Your WorldEvery one of us is born a blessed bundle of joy with the potential to move the world with the tiniest acts of kindness and caring.

All we require is guidance and nurturing and acknowledging of that power inherent in each one of us. In this wonderful, amazing, charming and important book, Beth Davis shows us how.The song lyric “Teach your children well” resounds through every page as you read about children who at the youngest ages have created causes for good, have volunteered with boundless enthusiasm, have extended a helping hand and a loving heart to their fellow small-sized human beings, that each and every child may enjoy an abundant and productive, happy and healthy life. All because a parent, a teacher, a friend showed them the way. With the storytelling ease and profound wisdom of a saint, Beth Davis becomes that friend to all of us.

Beth does all this, not to achieve notoriety, but with the humblest of hearts, simply to give all she can to our children and our world. One thing I can tell you for sure- -Beth is the real deal.Now, as with anyone who has truly mastered an area of life, Beth Davis offers the priceless value of her experience to all of us in this precious gem that every parent and teacher should read together with their kids. We learn together that through simple acts of kindness we transform adversities into miracles of love, of commitment and connection. By teaching our children well, we create a better world.
