September Brave Partners✨

🌈 Rainbow Connection
🏃‍♀️Run with Mae
✨ Fund a Life
🏥 Mott’s Oncology

This month, we’re supporting these partners through books and Brave Packs, bringing a little comfort, joy, and encouragement to children and families navigating these new journeys.
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re holding children facing cancer and their families especially close. Our partners support a range of diagnoses, and we’re grateful to be a small part of their stories.

Every purchase this month will go towards these organizations and the families they serve. Thanks for helping us show these children that they have people cheering them on. 💛

BUY ONE, GIFT ONE STARTS TODAY! 📚✨

This weekend, buy one copy of The Smallest Spark and we’ll send another directly to a teacher of your choice. 🍎

“Inside you, there is a spark.
A small, steady light that keeps glowing even when the world changes around you.
That light is bravery.
And it’s already yours.”

We hope children carry this message with them into the new school year as they enter new classrooms, meet new people, and face new experiences. Because bravery doesn’t always look big or loud. Sometimes children just need a reminder of how brave they truly are. 🤍

Choose a teacher who has encouraged your child, your own classroom, or any special classroom that could use a little extra spark. If you don’t have one in mind, we’ll send the gifted copy to one of our partner schools!

If gifting to a specific teacher:

🍎 Leave their name, school and grade taught, mailing address, and who the book is from in the order notes at checkout.
🎁 We’ll wrap and package it for you!
💛 We’ll include a note letting them know it was gifted by you!

August 21–23 only. ✨

To celebrate, Gracie wants to share a little bravery. 🤍

She’s choosing 5 special places to send a copy of The Smallest Spark to, in hopes it can find its way to a brave kid who might need it.✨
Tag a nonprofit, small business, bookstore, therapy clinic, hospital, Child Life team, community organization, or another special place below. Gracie will pick 5 tomorrow! ✨

Share your nominations with us by 10pm tonight, and we’ll DM you if Gracie chooses the place you tagged.🤍

P.S. Teachers, we have something special coming for classrooms later this month! 🥰

We’re so excited to partner with Rising Kites, a nonprofit dedicated to celebrating the gift of Down syndrome! Through their incredible work, they have provided encouragement and resources to over 4,000 families within the Down syndrome community and created employment opportunities for 15 individuals with disabilities!

This month, our goal is to donate 50 copies of The Smallest Spark to the amazing moms attending their Caregivers Retreat.✨

💛 Buy One. Give One.

For every copy of The Smallest Spark purchased this month, one will be donated to a mom attending the retreat! Together, we’re reminding caregivers that they are seen, supported, and never alone✨

✨The Smallest Spark✨

A story about the quiet kind of bravery.
The kind that whispers instead of shouts.
The kind that flickers softly, but never goes out.

Inspired by our own family’s journey, we wrote The Smallest Spark for the incredible children who receive our Brave Packs, and for every child and family facing moments that ask them to be brave.

💛 Buy One. Give One.

For every book purchased, one will be donated to our brave pack program.

We hope this story reminds every child that they are never alone, and that even the smallest spark can light the way.✨

Please note: The final book has a slightly updated cover🥰

Hospital stays are hard.✨
That’s why we’re so grateful for organizations like Once Upon a Room – Grand Rapids, who transform hospital rooms into magical spaces for kids during these hard moments!
