I Have a Choice

By Ben Romano

Overview


Hi, I'm Ben Romano, and I'd like to offer a new way for kids and families to think about and speak about choices in their home. It's my goal that this book offers a doorway to making choices that are "right for me." It's not so much about good or bad, right or wrong, it's about feeling good about the choices we make and understanding that we have the ability to choose in challenging situations. With a "Seussified" poetic structure, there's room for play and imagining for kids of all ages. Let's empower our next generation to be thoughtful in their choices. To be okay with who they are, and proud of who they are becoming.

Description


Imagine with me that choices are like leaves. Sometimes they're just within reach and sometimes it's tough to tell them apart. As you sit down with a child in your family and read this book, we invite you to talk to them about the kinds of choices they can make. Reading this book to them might remind you of some of the difficult choices you've had to make in your life. The moral of "I Have a Choice" is not that we should make good choices and that we shouldn't make bad choices, but that we have OUR choice that reflects a part of us that we are proud of.
