About this item
by Rena Olsen (Author), Kompal Rana (Illustrator)
Most people chase happiness. Maxine teaches us to choose joy.
Maxine's Joy is the heartwarming, true story of Maxine Landrum Thaxton, who lived through The Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and World War II-yet never lost her joy.
This beautifully illustrated children's book shows young readers that joy is not just a feeling-it's a way of being. With gentle nods to family, faith, Alzheimer's Disease, and the passing of loved ones, Maxine's story helps children understand life's deepest lessons through a joyful lens.
Perfect for readers young and old, Maxine's Joy is a celebration of resilience, kindness, and the joy that lives within us all.
Proceeds from Maxine's Joy support research, programs and families affected by Alzheimer's Disease and dementia.
