The Little Island By Margaret Wise Brown

 The Little Island
A beautiful story about a small island in the middle of the ocean. The seasons change and storms make the wind blow,all the while the little island remains. This is also a beautiful book teach children how simple faith can be.
I would like to share an excerpt here with you.

"Then you must tak it on faith what I tell you,' said the fish
"What's that?" said the cat- "Faith."
"to believe what I tell you about what you don't know," said the fish
And the fish told the kitten how all land is one land under the sea.
The cat's eyes were shining with the secret of it.
And because he loved secrets he believed. And he let the fish go.

This beautiful simple story will warm your heart and capture your children's thoughts.
