Kevin the Elephant loves to sing! Because of this talent, Culture the Vulture talks Kevin into wearing a beak and wings to become a bird. When Kevin tries to fly, it doesn’t go so smoothly. But when the big white pine tree catches fire, all the animals look to Kevin to shed his bird attire and use his elephant trunk to put out the fire. Moral of the story: Be who you were created to be. At the end of the story, there are games, discussion questions, and notes from the author to further talk about the message. Softcover. 48 pgs. ~ Gina

Category Description for Saga 1: Origins
This is the first in the BRAVE Books series. This series is all about the founding of Freedom Island and how animals Bongo, Rebel, Asher, Valor, and Eva become the BRAVE team and fight off evil villains. These wholesome children’s books send biblical and moral messages about unconditional love, loving yourself the way God made you, having a servant’s heart, the wonders of a free market, and much more. Each book is written by a different author, including Missy Robertson, Trent Talbot, Ashley St. Clair, and more. Beautifully illustrated with captivating storylines, each story builds on the previous one. However, you don’t need to read them in order to enjoy the content and understand the moral. After each story, there are activities, discussion questions, and notes from the author about the topic. QR codes take you to short videos that explain the activities. Each story comes with a character sticker and a flag sticker. You can add these stickers to the Freedom Island map that also comes with each book. ~ Gina
