This creative story from the best-selling author of My Mouth is a Volcano!, and Bubble Gum Brain, reminds children that dark clouds can be temporary and asking for help is always okay. We all have times when we need to borrow a little hope from someone else.
When your clouds get too dark, and too heavy to push away, Reach out and ask, "Can I borrow some light?" "I'm having a really bad day." It's always okay to admit to yourself, "I just can't do it today. Everyone needs somebody sometimes, to help them find their way." Sometimes the dark clouds overhead seem too heavy and you feel like giving up. Little candle knows all about this. Bad grades, blasted on social media, worried about making the team, and wondering who her real friends are so many hard things to deal with! All she can see is darkness. But her story begins to change when someone notices she needs a boost of hope. As little candle is reminded she has purpose and her own unique gifts, and that she isn't the only one with dark clouds, her dim light begins to shine brighter. This hopeful story emphasizes for children (and adults) the many different ways to ask for help, and their ability to be a hope builder for others, too.

Because CHD, attacks unexpectedly, parents reel, bombarded with information regarding treatments, tests, and decisions—as parents echo, "I’ve never felt so alone.

Book excerpt: Gripping the steering wheel, I navigated traffic on the busy freeway as my thoughts raced, fearing for my passenger."How does he look?" Adjusting the rearview mirror, I strained to see the baby carrier strapped to the seat behind me. Only two tiny teddy-socked feet were visible. "He's okay, Mom. It's okay," my nine-year-old said, trying to reassure me from the back seat. I sped toward the hospital. Pushing the worst-case scenario out of my head, I repeated under my breath, "Please, God, be with my baby, my blood spotted, polka-dotted, blue-bruised baby!" This was just the beginning of a journey filled with more questions than answers about my baby-my happy, healthy baby-who was transformed, day by day, by what would eventually be labeled Sensory Processing Disorder.God! I thought. Why didn't anyone ever clue me in that vaccines were a factor in my child's low platelet blood disorder? In his speech regression? In his extreme eating and digestion issues? In his difficulty to live normally on a daily basis? A fire in the pit of my gut began to kindle and grow from that day forward. Vaccine injury would not have the last word!I've been there. Right where you are now. I've lived that life of a desperate mother. But now I'm here to tell you, I've got good news: There is Hope for a Healed Child.
Download or read book Opportunity and Hope written by Naomi Schaefer Riley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. education system is not meeting the needs of all our children, especially those who are economically disadvantaged. For too many families, income level and ZIP code determine the quality of education available to their children. The need to give all children access to a good education, a chance for a better future, has never been greater. Launched in 1998 by philanthropists Ted Forstmann and John Walton, the Children’s Scholarship Fund has offered thousands of low-income children across the country the chance to attend private school, children who would have otherwise never experienced the benefits of aprivate education. In Opportunity and Hope, prominent journalist Naomi Schaefer Riley chronicles the lives of 10 scholarship alumni who—because of the educational opportunities afforded them—were able to turn less than perfect childhood circumstances into successful lives and careers. The stories of these children, representative of thousands of others and their families, are nothing less than inspirational. They are proof that all any of America’s children need to achieve their dreams is a chance, and someone to believe in them. They are also a testament to the power of private schools, including many inner-city faith-based schools, and they are evidence that given the chance for the right kind of education, anyone can achieve the American dream.
