Written and Illustrated by Sophie Diao
Tiny Troubles by Sophie Diao is a wonderful story about to small succulents living in their garden. Nelli is friends with Worthi and she is often asking Worthi if he truly knows what finding a purpose means. He rapidly responds that maybe a purpose means to find your favorite food. These two small friends embrace a wonderful adventure where they are constantly looking for a purpose everywhere. Although they do not find it, they hope to continue their search the next day. It is a great book to teach the moral or lesson of the story and to remind students that we all have a purpose in life.
