The Words That Hurt – A Heartfelt Children’s Story About Kindness, Empathy & the Power of Words | 3D Illustrated Storybook (Ages 6–10)

A gentle, beautifully illustrated story that helps children learn how words can hurt… and how they can heal.

The Words That Hurt is a warm, emotionally thoughtful children’s story created by Sundazed Expressions to help kids understand the real impact of what they say.

At Sunnyvale Elementary, Maya loves to make people laugh.
But one day, a joke goes too far — and her classmate, Jordan, is hurt.

Maya didn’t mean to be unkind… she was “just joking.”

Through a classroom activity called the Kind Words Challenge, Maya begins to notice how words affect the people around her — and how listening, apologizing, and choosing kindness can change everything.

This story gently teaches:

• empathy and emotional awareness
• how words can hurt or heal
• how to apologize in a healthy way
• how kindness builds stronger friendships
• how to think before speaking

The story never shames the child — it focuses on growth, learning, and forgiveness.
