World of Christine Mix
Children's Illustrator & Author
Children's Books
For Kids of All Ages
Christine is proud to announce that she has one short true story,
Standing Up, which has just been published, May 2007, in
Chicken Soup for the Child's Soul
Character-Building Stories to Read with Kids Ages 5-8
Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Patty Hansen, and Irene Dunlap
Character-building
stories that show children how to make good choices and to respect the needs
and feelings of others.
Today's children live in a world filled with adventure, mental stimulation,
topical issues, and personal challenges. The values they learn now, between
the ages of 5 and 8, will shape the rest of their lives.
Through this collection of heartfelt true stories about
family ties, helping neighbors, and lasting friendships, children will see
how other kids their age have learned valuable lessons from the choices they've
made--and most of all, they will realize that they are not alone in dealing
with some of the difficult issues in their lives; such as the loss of a loved
one, accepting and respecting others, taking responsibility for their actions,
coping with fitting in, or learning to make friends.
Chicken Soup for the Child's Soul is a book that can help guide children as
they explore their relationships with peers and family members, and begin
to develop their own personal values. You and your children will share special
times reading these real-life stories to each other, as together you explore
how other children have dealt with everyday issues in healthy, positive ways.
Reading Child's Soul stories together can serve as an entrance to conversations
about the topics of the stories, which can create better family and classroom
communication during these exciting years of growth.
Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen are the co-creators of the bestselling
Chicken Soup for the Soul series. Patty Hansen is the founder of www.preteenplanet,
an online destination for today's preteens. She and her writing partner Irene
Dunlap have coauthored seven Chicken Soup for the Soul books for kids and
preteens, including the award-winning Chicken Soup for the Kid's Soul .
