Max and Mollie Discover the Magic of Sea Glass: A Lesson in Character Chapter Book (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780986265525)

How do you "teach" perseverance to a child? Discover a charming and inviting way to show children the importance and power of perseverance and resilency.

During twins Max and Mollie's first trip to the beach they discover a world of wildlife and fish they have only read about in books. Not only does their Granddad teach them about the many ecosystems of an ocean, but they find many beautiful treasures brought in by the ocean's waves. Are their discoveries priceless diamonds and rubies? Old pirate treasure? Or toss away trash? Be a part of Max and Mollie's encounter with Lily, the magical old woman whose special powers and insight teach a valuable life lesson. Her antics and stories help the twins learn about the power and magic that lies hidden in the sea's tossed and tumbled glass--and how it can impact their lives as children and even throughout adulthood. How can Lily's message be more valuable than any lost treasure of gold and gemstones? By illustrating the importance and power of patience, perseverance, "stick-to-it-ive-ness", and resilience.

Includes discussion questions and encourages children to stay strong, be brave, and do the right thing.
