Overview

A children's story about how actions speak louder than words, and how you can make a difference in someone's life with kindness and thoughtfulness.

Description

This is a story about kindness, thoughtfulness, and taking care of others by taking action. It is also a lesson about how actions speak louder than words, and how, in a noisy world, a person does not have to be louder than everyone around them to be heard and understood.

About The Author

Stephen Garvey was born and raised in San Francisco. Having spent a good portion of his adult life working with children through a program called 'Kidstock, Inc.', he has taught kids to sing and dance and act for over 35 years. At St. Brigid Academy, formerly a San Francisco grammar school, he directed the last three drama productions- 'Alice in Wonderland', 'Cinderella' and a Christmas pageant featuring 'A Christmas Carol' and 'T'was the Night Before Christmas'.

Stephen chose to write under the pen name Khalo Stephen ('Khalo' being the Arabic word for 'Mother's Brother'), wanting to honor his Nephews and their Palestinian ancestry. See more about the author, the illustrator and Khalo Stephen's writing mission at www.khalostephen.com
