Hey! Just checking in to let everyone know all is well! Just haven‘t been doing any reading at all - my minimal brain power and energy has been put towards nesting and getting ready for baby Benjamin.💙
Time is such a crazy thing. I‘ve been pregnant for three seasons, but yet it feels like no time at all, and also not soon enough until we meet him.😊
I‘ve been working on building up his little library, with my favourite book being Pig the Pug.🐶
Just a tiny bit dark in tone, something the adults can appreciate in picture books. Not quite 'original Grimm's fairy tales' type ending, but certainly leans toward delivering a dire fate to the wrong doer as a moral lesson to readers.
Whether depicting the greedy character as fat is the wrong kind of messaging to send to kids today, feels sadly like a question that was just emerging into the mainstream when this book was first published.
A part of the book that really stood out to me was at the end when they all had a dance party. In younger grades I feel like this is important because who doesn't love a good dance party but it also shows they that its okay to be you in your community.
This book is a thoughtful read that helps children understand the value of being apart of a community and sharing with others. I believe that this book shows how one little act of kindness can go a long way.
this book can be used to teach children about the significance of sharing, kindness, and the celebration of individuality, fostering discussions on social values and empathy
The Rainbow Fish is a charming story about a beautiful fish that learns the importance of sharing and making friends. It encourages discussions on friendship, generosity, and the value of being unique. The books illustrations captivate young readers and engage them in its powerful message
#AutumnPlease! Give a #Sweater or a scarf if you can spare one (or two), because kindness makes the world go round. A recent Libby find. Review is forthcoming.
