Three Books Donated to Sint Maarten Library Promote Reading and Restoration

SINT MAARTEN — Restoration can begin with something as simple as a book: a moment to pause, reflect, create, or discover a new way to understand ourselves and others.

That message was reflected in three books donated by author and facilitator Amy Arrindell to the Sint Maarten Library during the Early Learners BookStart Campaign 2026.

The donated titles are Your Little Recharge: Small Steps of Self-Empowerment, Confidence, and Emotional Regulation; My Compassion Superpower: Pause. Think. Choose Kindness; and Restored in Color: A Therapeutic & Manifestation Coloring Book.

Your Little Recharge will be included in the Early Learners BookStart gift for the youngest children at the September 19 Grand Celebration at Emilio Wilson Park. My Compassion Superpower encourages empathy, kindness, and better choices for children and the adults who guide them. Restored in Color formed the basis of a September 17 workshop for parents and caregivers focused on creative expression, reflection, and restoration.

The Sint Maarten Library thanked Arrindell for the contribution and for supporting the Early Learners BookStart Campaign through both her books and the Restored in Color workshop.
