How children can stay true to themselves, overcome their fear of being made fun of, and begin to find their purpose in life. The Twinklers is a self-help book for kids. Taking children seriously, it provides a refreshing take on many common dilemmas faced by school-age kids, and offers practical suggestions on how to best manage these problems. Children will recognize the familiar characters who populate their world and acquire the tools they need to stand up for themselves while still being kind. Parents, increasingly under pressure to produce high achievers, will enjoy a reminder of what really matters: making the world better in our own unique way and without needing to put others down.
