What happens when something truly miraculous shows up in your life? Do you recognize it? Do you appreciate it? Do you see it for what it reallyis?
This is a story of an inquisitive girl and a curious little candy dish that holds a special treat every day. But it comes with its fair share of frustrations too. Written by New York Times best-selling author Kobi Yamada, it is an energetic story for readers of all ages about finding wonder in simple delights and discovering gratitude for the gift of a brand-new day.

We asked Kobi to share a bit about his creative inspiration and the book’s timeless message.
What inspired you to write The Candy Dish?
I wanted to write a book about appreciating what a gift each day is, and how each day brings so much wonder, magic, and possibility. Many of us find ourselves constantly wanting more of something, but that desire for more can often get in the way of recognizing and appreciating what we have. This book is a reminder that just to wake up, and have a brand-new day, is the greatest gift of all.
Adelina Lirius’s detailed illustrations are packed with color and curiosity. How do you see her art contributing to the storytelling?
Adelina did an amazing job bringing the tale to life. She was able to amplify the energy, the unexpected joy, the unbridled magic of this book. There is so much to look at and enjoy in her vibrant work. It leaves you inspired, uplifted, appreciative of the gift each day brings, and grateful for everyday wonders in our lives.
Do you have a favorite spread?
I think my favorite spread is when our girl finally starts to really see and appreciate the beauty of the unique piece of candy she has received, when she really takes the time to examine it and to look at it for what it is. Adelina brilliantly captured the magic of the moment with so much style, whimsy, creativity, extensive color, and expansive imagination.
What do you hope this book will inspire more of in the world?
Many of us find that life feels like something to acquire, or achieve, or to strive for. We can lose the perspective that life is also about taking time to slow down, to appreciate, to take in all the wondrous, magical, seemingly ordinary little delights and experiences.
My hope is that this story will be an inspiring reminder to see the beautiful gift that life is, and to enjoy each and every day as it comes. Gratitude is transformative, and the more we are mindful of the things we are grateful for, the more gratitude we bring into our lives.

As with all discount codes from all stores, shipping discounts do have limitations and exceptions. For example, they typically do not cover large items or shipping rates over a certain dollar amount.
