Overview
What if being smart isn’t just about grades or tests? What if it’s about music, kindness, movement, or a love of nature? In What If I Told You, children explore nine kinds of “smarts” they already carry inside.
Through playful questions and vibrant illustrations, every child’s gifts are recognized, whether they love puzzles, painting, planting seeds, or cheering up a friend. This read-along story inspires children to imagine new ways their ideas can help others, sparking conversations about creativity, purpose, and the many kinds of intelligence that often go unnoticed in school. Ideal for classrooms, story time, and family reading sessions, What If I Told You nurtures children as they embrace who they are and the unique talents they bring to the world.
Cristine Bolley, LPC, NCC, believes each child has a unique brilliance waiting to be revealed. Drawing on years of experience with educators and children, she created What If I Told You to help families and teachers recognize natural gifts and encourage children to explore the many ways they can be “smart.” Through her writing and art, Cristine inspires children to pursue their talents and
dreams.
