Book excerpt: Honeycake: Special Magical Powers - A Children’s Picture Book About Kindness, Compassion and Empathy Literary Titan Gold Winning Book Kindness is a gift we can all afford to give. Though it doesn't cost a thing, your kindness can mean everything to another person. Could you imagine how much nicer the world would be if everyone smiled at each other or did a random act of kindness every day? We are kind when we use our manners by saying please and thank you, or by opening a door, or by giving our seat on a bus or train to a stranger in need. HAPPY, CARING CHILDREN The good feelings that we experience when being kind are produced by endorphins. They activate areas of the brain that are associated with pleasure, social connection, and trust. These feelings of joyfulness are proven to be contagious, encouraging more kind behavior (also known as altruism) by the giver and recipient. Acts of kindness help us form connections with others which are reported to be a strong factor in increasing happiness. Kindness is a key ingredient that enhances positivity and helps children feel good about themselves as it increases serotonin levels. This important chemical affects learning, memory, mood, sleep, health, and digestion. Children with a positive outlook have greater attention spans, more willingness to learn, and better creative thinking to improve results at school. In the third installment in the charming Honeycake Series, Nala brings her outgrown toys and clothes to Rainbow Hall, and spends the day with her Grandma and Uncle JD discovering a special magical power we all have called ✨KINDNESS✨ Nala, learns the value of kindness and giving to others in this sweetheart of a story! As Nala states “being kind is like sprinkling a little bit of magic everywhere you go!” This sweet, cheerful book uplifts this message, and even better, it shows kids that they have power in their lives and they can be a positive force in their communities. Readers give this book and series a 5.0 out of 5 stars! A MUST HAVE IN EVERY CHILD’S BOOK COLLECTION “Honeycake: Special Magical Powers is a wonderful children’s book by Medea Kalantar. This book follows the journey of Nala and how she learns about the magical powers she and everyone else has. She learns a valuable lesson from her family about kindness and how much it can mean to another person. I absolutely love this book. It is adorable and teaches children such an imperative lesson. It also presents the idea of kindness in such an understandable way, even for young children. Nala learns about small things, like smiles, but then the story moves on to a much more serious topic. She is donating her old clothes and toys to a shelter for families; she learns about families who have lost everything. Her kindness of donating her old stuff that she has outgrown shows just how important it is because donating her old things cost her nothing, but it meant everything to those families to have clothing and toys. I love how this book can spark important conversations with children about how some people are less fortunate, and how sometimes you need help and it is okay to ask for it. Bravo Medea! This is another must have in every child’s book collection!” LOVELY STORY “This is a lovely and heartfelt story about showing Nala how such a small gesture can significantly impact. This story helps explain his being kind to others go far beyond that person. It's an excellent lesson to teach kids, and this sweet story will help show them why and how the act of kindness is so important.” KINDNESS IS SO IMPORTANT “After reading 'Honeycake: Special Magical Powers', me and my 5 year old son took the time to reflect on our most memorable acts of kindness. My son was so happy to learn that he had been using his magical powers all along. The story was so well written with an easy to follow storyline that kept my son intrigued from start to finish. He usually falls asleep mid-story but tonight, he wanted to know how this story ended. I asked him what he liked most about the book, and he said, "when Nala shared her toys with the kids that lost theirs in the fire." He loved the book and promises to use more of his magical powers to put a smile on other kids faces. I highly recommended this book to all families as it teaches our children the importance of caring, sharing and of course, kindness.” It's the perfect gift for all teachers and children, preschool through grade 3.

But she gets more than she’s bargained for when this defiant act triggers a series of events that lead her toward her future, by showing her the past.

It offers historical context on what sweets are popular where and why and emphasizes the cross-cultural insights those sweets present. The reference opens with an overview of general trends in desserts and sweet treats. Entries organized by country and region describe cultural attributes of local desserts, how and when sweets are enjoyed, and any ingredients that are iconic. Several popular desserts are discussed within each entry including information on their history, their importance, and regional/cultural variations on preparation. An appendix of recipes provides instructions on how to make many of the dishes, whether for school projects or general entertaining.
