What books do you offer and for what age range?
We offer beautifully illustrated children’s storybooks featuring Chance, our rescued puppy hero. Our stories are designed for ages 4 to 7, with simple, heartwarming storytelling and gentle lessons, and for ages 8 to 12, with deeper stories that explore emotional and educational themes about kindness, empathy, and second chances.
What is Chance’s Tale of Second Chances about?
Chance’s Tale of Second Chances is inspired by the true story of a timid puppy rescued from a Houston shelter and the boy who recognized his worth when no one else did. This heartwarming story combines real-life inspiration with fun facts, emotional storytelling, and lessons on compassion, courage, and rescue. It reminds readers that one small act of kindness can create a ripple of hope that reaches far beyond what we can see.
What is A Star for Chance about?
A Star for Chance is an age-appropriate adaptation of Chance’s true rescue story, perfect for young readers. It follows Chance, a little puppy searching for love and a forever home, on a heartwarming journey filled with kindness, friendship, and the magic of being chosen. This story teaches children important lessons about love, compassion, and second chances. By encouraging little ones to be kind to smaller creatures like Chance, we help them develop empathy that extends to the world around them, inspiring a lifetime of kindness and caring for others.
What are “Value Charms”?
Value Charms are keepsakes designed to represent the moral of each story, such as kindness, courage, or gratitude. They are made of high-quality, lead-free alloy and rubber, packaged in protective card sleeves, and perfect for backpacks, keychains, or anywhere children want a daily reminder of the story’s message.
Can I buy the book without the charm (or vice versa)?
Absolutely! You can purchase the book only, the charm card set only, or both together in a special bundle.
Are the stories part of a series?
Yes! Chance’s Tale of Second Chances is the first in The Gifted by Chance series. Each book features new adventures and lessons inspired by real rescue stories.
