I Am Like a TREE TRUNK and ROOTS: A Story of Self and Empathy

"Conversations are important for everyone. Some conversations can only occur when we feel understood. By talking with others, we can learn new ways to be respectful, kind, and empathetic. As we deepen our learning, we become more aware of our own actions. By discovering, growing, and learning about the many emotional parts of ourselves and others, we can find our Present Self. Follow along in this conversation that connects our emotional parts of ourselves to TREE (our Present Self). As TRUNK (Self) and ROOTS (Empathy) communicate, we learn that our parts interconnect so we can be just like a strong, healthy, and growing TREE."--Back cover.
