Baby Gardenia and Her Magic Stone
For any child, discovering one's purpose can be a big adventure, even more so for a happy, wild White Rhinoceros whose eyesight is not so good. With a simple pair of eyeglasses, Baby Gardenia's life magically transforms as she gains her vision and discovers her purpose to help others. "It's the best feeling in the world!"
Baby Gardenia and Her Magic Stone is the second children's picture book in the Baby Gardenia series.
This children's picture book is a hidden gem that inspires young readers to imagine new thoughts and introduces them to the world of reading. While the story sparks an appreciation of magic, it touches upon basic themes: friendship, purpose, love, teamwork, and overcoming the odds. In addition, it introduces them to the endangered White Rhinoceros and the importance of helping and protecting other wildlife in the world.
The book is 32 pages of vivid, joyful, kid-friendly illustrations to enhance color awareness. The artwork is paired nicely with easy-reading text and charming speech-bubble dialogue that adds to the spirit of the characters. It's perfectly adapted for read-aloud, young independent readers, and snuggling down at bedtime with loved ones. Ages 3-7 years old, girls and boys.
