Amara's Treasure Box

She had a box of treasures that were hers, and only hers. Then everything changed.
Amara has a small wooden box filled with her favorite things in the world - a smooth stone, a striped feather, a shiny button. Every treasure has a story, and every story belongs to her.
But when a new baby sister arrives, Amara's world shifts overnight. The lap that was always open. The seat that was always hers. Suddenly, she has to share it all - and she doesn't know what to do with the tight, hot feeling growing inside her chest.

A gentle, honest story about jealousy, love, and growing a bigger heart.
Written for children ages 4-8, Amara's Treasure Box follows one little girl's real journey through big sibling feelings - without rushing the hard parts, and without a single lecture. Amara finds her own way through, and so will your child. Inside this book, your child will discover:

• That big feelings like jealousy are normal, not "bad"
• That sharing doesn't make love smaller - it makes it bigger

• A heartfelt activity page to reflect on their own "treasures" and feelings

• Families expecting or welcoming a new baby
• Parents and caregivers introducing emotional vocabulary
• Preschool and early elementary classrooms teaching empathy and SEL skills
• Gifting to a soon-to-be big brother or big sister
