Chicken Soup for the Soul Kids imparts good values through heartwarming and humourous stories to help kids put their best foot forward.

Lucas is the jokester in his squad of friends. He's always sunny--and usually ready with a funny quip or silly joke. His friends are used to Lucas being the life of the party, and the whole apartment building relies on his good humor. But what happens when he's the one who needs cheering up?
 
Another adventure with the everyday heroes of the Sunshine Squad! 
 
Rajani LaRocca is a book lover, doctor, and foodie who was born in India, raised in Kentucky, and now lives in the Boston area. She is the author of Midsummer's Mayhem and Bracelets for Bina's Brothers for the Storytelling Math series.

India Valle loves to create whimsical, relatable characters and fun settings. They take inclusiveness and creating positive imagery for underrepresented groups seriously and continually explores how illustrations can be a tool to help you people understand the complex experiences and emotions of growing up.
