The Adventures of Confetti

The Beginning

by Derek Atlas

Amelia is tired of hospital stays, medicine, and feeling sick. When her doctor shares the news her family has been hoping for, her parents bring her a soft, smiling stuffed monkey with a bright message on his shirt: “Spread Kindness Like Confetti.” Amelia gives him a name—and a wish.

That night, a shooting star crosses the sky as Amelia hopes Confetti can bring kindness to everyone. Soon, the hospital grows quiet, and the little monkey seems to have a mission of his own. Dr. Thomas has just shared difficult news with a family and needs a moment of comfort. Nurse Jenny is worried about her little boy’s surgery. Could a small act of kindness help them feel less alone?

As Amelia’s story unfolds, Confetti becomes a quiet reminder that doctors and nurses need caring, too—and that even a little kindness can brighten a hard day. This tender picture-book story offers preschoolers a gentle way to explore empathy, friendship, and hope, with a heartwarming read-aloud feel for sharing together.

Amelia’s eyes grew wide. “Is he for me?” Her dad smiled. “He sure is.”
Amelia stretched her arms toward the monkey, and her mom carefully placed him in her lap.
