Item description from seller

Paperback. The book can be given to kids ages 8 to 11 for independent reading. Can also be read aloud by a parent or teacher to kids ages 5 to 10. Talia and the Time Train is a warm, imaginative story about a girl who discovers a magical train that travels through her own life. When Talia drifts off watching her model train, she awakens aboard the mysterious Time Train, where each car behind her holds a living memory from her past, and the empty track ahead represents her unwritten future. Guided by a gentle, unseen voice, Talia learns that while she cannot climb back into yesterday, every choice she makes in the "Now car" helps build kinder, braver days ahead.Set in India and woven with family, music, and emotion, this picture book helps children (and the grown-ups who love them) explore memories, mistakes, and second chances in a hopeful, accessible way. Perfect for sparking conversations about time, regret, and making better choices, Talia's journey shows that the most important place to be is right here, in Now.The story contains concepts of Judaism. Talia is a young Jewish girl in India. Book has Parent and Educators Guide.Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Connections1. Self-AwarenessTalia notices how different memories feel. Joy during birthdays and roller coasters, and discomfort when she remembers saying something unkind to her friend. The book helps children name feelings like regret, pride, and hope as they think about their own "Past cars."2. Self-ManagementTalia moves from wishing she could erase a moment to deciding to act differently now by apologizing and thinking before she speaks. Children see that while they cannot change past actions, they can manage their behavior in the present.3. Social AwarenessThe memory of hurting her friend's feelings helps Talia realize that her words affect others. This invites children to see that every "car" in their own time train includes other people's experiences and emotions.4. Relationship SkillsTalia apologizes clearly, her friend listens, and they choose to play together again at recess. The story models how honest apologies and changed behavior can repair trust and create a "new car" filled with forgiveness and connection.5. Responsible Decision-MakingTalia uses what she learned from a painful memory to guide her next choice and intentionally build "better cars" ahead. Children are encouraged to think about long-term outcomes instead of only reacting in the moment. Talia discovers a magical train that travels through her own life. Talia learns that while she cannot climb back into yesterday, every choice she makes in the "Now Car" helps build kinder, braver days ahead. This item is printed on demand.
