Growing Up tells the story of two children growing into adulthood as they discover more about themselves, about service to others, and about building a foundation for loving relationships.

Growing Up is a wonderful read-aloud book for children aged approximately 4 to 12. The book addresses children's curiosity about their own physical changes, developing capacities, and social relationships, in an open-ended way that naturally allows for deeper conversations when needed. And it places physical, mental, emotional, and social changes in a spiritual context, showing that life is about more than just what happens as our bodies mature.

Growing Up is more than just a story. It also includes:

• Positive affirmations that can help shape a child's day
• Encouragement towards mindfulness, self-reflection, and a growth mindset
• A self-portrait and journal section to guide conversations about each life stage
• Words of wisdom to prompt deeper reflection
• A chart for setting "growing up learning goals" with suggested life skills to include
