Campbell's Journey through Honesty Cave is a picture book for young children, ages 6-10 years old, that explores the importance of being a truth-teller.
After an accident derails their playdate, strong-willed and empathetic Campbell must decide how to "fix" what has happened. In his dilemma, he is swept into the cave of Truth Rock, where his special butterfly friend, Omni, challenges him to face its deepest cracks and crevices. Each step below reveals what Campbell is truly made of, how lies really take shape, and what is needed to conquer everyday word wars and the threat of a crumbling good character. But will Campbell take it all in to get back above ground and save the day?
Campbell's Journey explores the relationships between:
- Pride and Humility
- Fear and Courage
- Shame and Boldness
Why is it important? Our growing boys deserve to express themselves freely and wisely. We must offer a safe space for them to discover and understand the power of their words and decisions. It is with us that they first learn to choose better paths through tough life situations. Before the world can exact consequences for their actions, we firmly, and with love, rear them to become vocal, trusting, confident, and integral men of valor.
