From the Author

Your thoughts are important! Yes, more than you realize.

By learning to mold your thoughts, you can change your life into one that you feel excited about and love each day. For the past 15 or so years, I have learned oceans about the power of thoughts, action and persistence. How wonderful it would be for kids to understood the significance of this at a young age.

In each of the books in the Molly Jo Daisy series, I help children learn to be the master of their thoughts.

Here's to your child's head and heart!
