New York Times-bestselling parenting authors Richard and Linda Eyre teach the very best kind of character-building, freewheeling joy to kids with 22 illustrated stories.

“Based on their preschool curriculum, the Eyres’ selected stories and poems each highlight one of many ‘joys,’...Short, simple tales and poems to instill value; they will be welcome in homes where the values presented are shared.”—Kirkus Reviews 

There is fun, there is even happiness, but then there is JOY! Each story in this anthology teaches one of ten essential values that are critical for healthy, happy children: Joy of the Body, Joy of the Earth, Joy of Honesty and Communication, Joy of Sharing and Service, Joy of Goals and Order, Joy of Confidence, Joy of Wonder, Joy of Imagination and Creativity, Joy of Family, and the Joy of Uniqueness.

For decades, Richard and Linda Eyre, authors of the New York Times-bestselling book Teaching Your Children Values, have taught these joyful values to half a million kids through their highly acclaimed Joy School program. Now for the first time ever, these stories are available to everyone who wants to bring their kids the very best gift possible: JOY!
