"I can't wait to share 10 Hidden Heroes with the kids in my life!" -Jennifer Garner, actress and producer
10 Hidden Heroes helps children develop counting skills while learning ways to make the world a better place.
In this fun-filled and inspiring seek-and-find book, New York Times bestselling author Mark K. Shriver highlights the various ways children and adults can be real-life heroes in their everyday lives. Little ones learn to count the individual heroes who shine a light on the importance of helping others whether it's through teaching, caring for animals, protecting the environment, or keeping others from harm. Adults who read along can help their children make connections to the unseen acts of compassion that occur in their very own neighborhoods.
Illustrated with colorful drawings by Laura Watson, 10 Hidden Heroes proves that acts of kindness and generosity can be found all around us. We just need to know where to look.
