The story of Jamie typifies the growth

process that all children must experience

in order to develop a healthy attitude

towards success and failure. In today s

society our children are continually

bombarded with a myriad of positive and

negative images, situations, issues and

choices, frequently without the benefit of a

clear moral code or direction on which to

base their opinions or to make appropriate

decisions.

The Big Secret is a charming tale

which will help kids visualize that

mistakes, disappointments and, yes,

failures are not fatal. The story reveals that

learning through life s ups and downs

strengthens individual character and builds

personal endurance for a successful life.
