A playful, read-aloud exploration of all the different thoughts we have every day and their role in our lives.

“Sharks rule!” “That’s gross.” “I love tofu.” “Is she from Montreal?” Whether our thoughts are happy, sad, scared, excited, or worried, they come in a constant flow.

Through playful rhyming text and vivid, fun illustrations, Just a Thought introduces kids 4–8 to the way our lives are shaped by our thoughts. The story helps to teach self-awareness by recognizing negative self-thought and recurring thought patterns.
 
Regardless of whether you have happy, weird, or mean thoughts—they are all just thoughts, and no single thought can define you. The magic of mind is that it's a space where anything is possible!
“Playfully serious thoughts about thinking for deep-thinking children.”—Kirkus Reviews

“A unique, informative, entertaining, and thought-provoking picture book, Just a Thought is especially and unreservedly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections.”—Midwest Book Review
