With breezy energy and kinetic illustrations, this picture book promotes foundational concepts of love and confidence while fostering reading. Diverse, engaging characters encourage kids to love themselves and what they can do.

A successful 11-year career in the NFL is just a small part of Israel Idonije's life story. "Izzy" is a creator at heart, so it's no surprise that he created DreamKidz Adventures to develop and share stories for young people. DreamKidz Adventures is part of his "Dream Big" approach to life. Izzy has worked in youth programming since he was in high school, and he has a charity that has provided programs to benefit youth since 2007. He understands the importance of teaching children love and helping them to see their value and potential. Izzy has been an integral part of the Chicago Public School system community by supporting reading and literacy initiatives. He has also served on the board of the Chicago Public Library. Izzy strives to be a positive influence in the world by lifting and building others. One of the ways he does this is by offering inspiring and uniting stories.
