    Think Big! We can achieve extraordinary dreams together, no matter what happens!

    In the third installment in her Live Big Series, bestselling and award-winning author Kat Kronenberg once again creates a mythical evolution story of some of nature’s most fascinating characters to teach young readers foundational skills for life in this case, helping them build a loving community that knows the joy of gratitude, giving, and going for the extraordinary.

    Written by Kat Kronenberg

    Illustrated by David Miles

    Publisher’s Synopsis: In the third installment in her Live Big Series, best-selling, award-winning author Kat Kronenberg takes readers back to the wilds of the African savanna where the animals not only still struggle to find food, but now they face life-threatening situations. They must fight to survive and are terrified.

    But when our beloved moody Baboon challenges Kudu on what to do, everything begins to change. One by one, Kudu, Giraffe, and Bee are faced with the dilemma of who they want to be. After watching Bee choose to do good, Baboon figures out a new secret: We can light the stars in our hearts, empowering our lives, once we smile big deep within, truly believing in who we are, our ideas, and the importance of caring for others.

    The danger continues to mount and Baboon finally gets so scared that he cries out for help. Luckily, some fun animals and Baobab Tree come to the rescue! Will they try the new SHHH secret so their collective ideas not only help all the animals survive but thrive together so that their dreams can come true?

    Once again, Kronenberg creates a mythical evolution story of some of nature’s most fascinating characters to teach young readers foundational skills for life in this case, helping them build a loving community that knows the joy of gratitude, giving, and going for the extraordinary. Through playful dialogue and beautiful illustrations, readers learn to take a deep breath when life gets hard, connect their heads to their hearts, and celebrate their best lives as they problem-solve together. As with Dream Big and Love Big, Kronenberg includes hands-on activities at the end of the book and on her website. Her dream is that the whole experience will inspire young readers everywhere to learn to think big together.

    About the Author

    Bestselling author Kat Kronenberg brings her energy and experience to her award-winning picture books, DREAM BIG (2017), LOVE BIG (2019), & THINK BIG (2020). Her vision began with a smile she calls “A U-Shaped Bridge” that can connect us to everything—our head to our heart, our lives to one another, and our dreams to the hope of something Greater. With the tragic loss of both parents, two siblings, a quest for meaning, and the example of incredible mentors, she created her LIVE BIG SERIES. The series shows us, no matter what happens, how to celebrate our best life with the power of our smile. The Heroic Journey, the African animals, in her books take, alongside her website, give readers fun and dynamic ways to achieve their best life too. Kronenberg’s ability to inspire audiences to believe in themselves, each other, and everyone’s dreams has also positioned her as a coveted keynote speaker and presenter for schools.

      I would send these to my Grandchildren who are the perfect age for this series. Their Mother is a Doctor in the COVID19 Clinic and Dad is working from home so there is plenty of stress in the household. Reading great books out loud to share makes all the difference for children and adults.

      Brightly illustrated books that have wonderful & posiitive themes. Especially now at this time. I think all 3 go together hand in hand but I’d go with Love Big.

      Just to let you know the pinterest option doesn’t work and I think it’s because there isn’t a picture.

      I would love to win this giveaway because I have young kids in the family that would enjoy these books. They love getting new books and these look so colorful and engaging with the animals in them. I think I most relate to Think Big. It helps to think big and see the big picture and how your actions affect not only yourself, but everything and everyone around you.

      I like to think of myself as all three, however Think Big would be more relatable, just ask my kids LOL These are great books to read with kids for the learning aspect alone. Very wonderful set.
