Do More of What Makes You Awesome is a fun, playful and empowering animal medicine story that gently guides children toward positive behaviour, self-confidence and healthy character development. Through the wisdom of the animal world, this story invites young readers to discover what truly makes them unique, kind, brave and awesome - and how living from those qualities creates value in their existence, harmony within themselves, their relationships and the natural world around them.
As children journey through the story, they meet a cast of wise and spirited animal characters, each embodying a different strength, value, or life lesson. From courage and kindness to patience, honesty, cooperation, and resilience, the animals model positive behaviours in a way that feels natural, relatable and fun. Rather than being told what to do, children are gently shown how making heart-led choices leads to better outcomes for everyone.
Rooted in the concept of animal medicine, the story highlights how animals live in balance with nature and instinctively understand cooperation, respect, and responsibility. Through observing their actions, children learn that when they honour their inner strengths and act with integrity, they naturally contribute to harmony within their families, communities and the Earth itself.
Do More of What Makes You Awesome supports children as they grow and develop emotionally, socially and ethically. It encourages self-reflection, emotional awareness and confidence, helping children recognise that their thoughts, words, and actions matter. By celebrating individuality while emphasising compassion and responsibility, the story empowers children to trust themselves and make positive choices, even in challenging situations.
Woven throughout the narrative is a gentle call to environmental care. As children connect with the wisdom of animals and the natural world, they are inspired to protect and respect the environments that support all life. The story reinforces the understanding that when children care for themselves and others, they also care for the Earth.
Warm, joyful and deeply affirming, Do More of What Makes You Awesome is a story that nurtures inner strength, positive behaviour and a meaningful connection to nature. It reminds children that being awesome isn't about being perfect - it's about listening to their hearts, learning from life and choosing actions that create kindness, balance and a brighter future for themselves and the world around them.
