Children's picture books by Joe Levi
Heartwarming stories of self-acceptance, friendship, and quiet courage along the riverbank — written for ages 2–10 and the grown-ups who read with them.

Miles learns that what makes him different is his special spark.
New neighbors, new friends — and room for every kind of heart.
