Join Sassafrass the Sassy Cat in learning the true meaning of friendship, empathy, and kindness when a birthday party takes an unexpected turn. The Best Birthday Gift Ever is a heartwarming tale perfect for young readers aged 5-7, written by Empowerteen tweens aged 11-13! Overseen by a holistic mental health physician, Dr. Paula Pilcher, this delightful story helps children develop social-emotional skills, navigate relationships, and resolve conflicts with care. Ideal for teachers and group reading, and perfect for any SEL curriculum, it fosters important life lessons that teens and tweens learn about in the Empowerteen program. Plus, proceeds from every purchase is a donation to send teens to attend the Empowerteen program's classes, workshops, and events, making it "the best gift ever" that keeps on giving!
The Empowerteen program works with ages 11-22 to teach preventive tools that enhance mental, physical, emotional, and social health. The mission of Empowerteen is to serve the community and the greater good of society through adolescent and young adult wellness curriculum, training, and fun events.
The bridge from childhood to adulthood doesn't have to be a lost and lonely one. Setting our youth up for success, resilience, purpose and connection sets all of us up for a better future! Learn more about Empowerteen at www.empowerteen.org
