About the Books:
written by

A lonely dinosaur has one wish: to care for another. When she saves an injured bird, a friendship begins. Together, they feast, play, and roam a vast and vibrant land.
But when the bright flash of a meteor lights up the sky, the world around them begins to change. So the dinosaur and the bird make a new wish: for life to continue.
Because hope holds on with a friend by your side.

written by
Each year, a girl and her mom light a yahrzeit candle on the anniversary of an uncle’s passing. She was young when he died, but her memories of him shine bright and clear: all the times they went camping, read together, and how he was there for every birthday.
The mom and daughter spend the day exchanging their favorite stories. They laugh or shed a tear; they visit his plot. And his spirit lives on, rekindled in the yahrzeit candle's flame.

The true purpose of her family’s custom becomes clear to the girl: to share, celebrate, and heal.
Sunday, May 24th at 2pm at Our 17th St Store!
