One of the most important attributes of successful people is persistence, especially when working to achieve a goal that proves to be elusive, difficult, demanding and just plain hard. The Tale of the Teeny, Tiny Black Ant, the latest addition to the successful “Let's Talk Series”, introduces young readers to Ace, a tiny black ant who is determined to secure a beautiful blue jay feather for his Queen. Children join Ace getting involved in his heroic struggles and meet an interesting array of creatures along the way who offer Ace both support and pessimism. Undaunted, Ace persists, but will he ultimately be successful?

The Tale of the Teeny, Tiny Black Ant is a beautifully illustrated tale that teaches children the importance of sticking to difficult chores, labors and tasks in order to achieve important goals. Peristence imparts positive attitudes about themselves and others to make the world a better place as they grow up.
