The Petal Keeper / Self-worth & Standing Tall

The Petal Keeper / Self-worth & Standing Tall

An experiential story that helps build self-worth and fairness in children.

A guided narrative best experienced together with a parent. Each story introduces a life practice - something your child won’t just try once, but will grow with over time.

What's the story about?

Veer feels small and invisible when his classmates tease him about his glasses. But a heartfelt conversation with Mama helps him see himself differently. Through a simple but profound metaphor, Veer discovers that self-worth isn’t about fitting in, but about standing tall in who you are.

More than just a story, this book is an experience. Part of our Mindfulness Collection, The Petal Keeper helps children reflect on their uniqueness, build confidence, and develop a strong sense of self-worth.

Childhood is the time to build confidence, not self-doubt. This book is an investment in a lesson that will stay with your child for life.

This isn’t just a story, it’s a structure.

One that supports your child in developing inner strength, compassion, and good judgment - with consistency and intention.

Here's how you can introduce this book to your child:

  • 📖 Read the story together to spark meaningful dialogue and help your child begin building a value they can carry for life.

  • 💬 Use the included Parent Guide to support the experience. It offers thoughtful prompts and conversation starters—so you’re never at a loss for words and can guide your child with confidence.

Ivneet Ahuja

Founder & Storyteller, Moral Sense.

"Most stories we read to children are entertaining, but often so fictional that even when they carry a moral, it is hard for a child to truly grasp it.

Moral Sense stories are set in real-life situations, moments every child has experienced or soon will. They help children see themselves in the story, not as distant characters, but as participants in their own growth.

Each story is guided by insights from educational psychology to ensure that the emotions, reflections, and language truly reach the child.

Moral Sense is a guide for parents to prepare children for real-life moral dilemmas they will inevitably face like, whether to admit a mistake or hide it, whether to stand up for what is right or stay silent. Instead of leaving it to life to teach these lessons the hard way, our stories open gentle, meaningful conversations at home."

Dr. Aishwarya Nair

Chief Consultant, Moral Sense.

PhD (Education Psychology), Pedagogical Counsellor, McGill University, Quebec, Canada.

"As parents, we often teach big lessons like kindness or self-control in the heat of the moment. But real character development happens with intentional, repeated practice, not just in reaction to mistakes.

That’s why Moral Sense goes beyond storytelling. Each book introduces a key virtue through engaging stories and life practices, turning abstract values into real habits.

When children live these values through stories, they don’t just understand them; they embody them. Moral Sense helps you raise resilient, self-aware children, one meaningful story at a time."
