What We Carry is a trilogy of story collections for young readers, designed to be read alone, shared aloud, or explored together in classroom, homeschool, and coaching settings.
Volume Three, the final volume, covers the territory that requires the most from a young person and from the people who guide them: forgiveness, moral courage, complicated love, and the question of who stays when staying is hard. These are stories of people who are trying to do the right thing in conditions that make it difficult - and of the older, wiser voices that help them see clearly enough to choose.
Each story ends with a Core Truth and a Memory Word. The Memory Words from all three volumes are collected at the back of each book. They are not lessons to be memorized. They are handles - something to hold onto when the story has ended and life has asked a similar question.
For educators, coaches, and families: a Curriculum Companion is available for each volume from Lewis Publishing.
