In the book red is being a bully to blue and no one is standing up to him until one comes around.

Chopsticks is a book about a pair of chopsticks, chopsticks always did everything with each other but, one day one of the chopstick broke a bit so chopstick told chopstick to go venture off on his own so he did. After venturing off on his own he learned many things to do and this made their bond stronger. I think this is a great book for children who have ever lost a friend or can’t make friends.

Spoon is a wonderful children’s book by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrated by Scott Magoon. The book is about a little spoon who is jealous of his friends, knife, fork, and chopsticks. Spoon is jealous of his friends because he believes his friend can go places and do certain thing that he can’t but, what spoon doesn’t know is that all of his friends are jealous of him. I believe this a great book for younger generations and possesses a great message.

Today at school a friend of mine dropped some of his markers, so I helped pick them up. I think this made my friend thankful that I helped him and, that he didn’t have to pick them up himself. This act made me feel happy that I was able to help my friend.

Two by Kathryn Otoshi is a book about friendship and that it is okay to make new friends. In the book, number Two is upset that her best friend number One is hanging out with someone else. This leads to rivalry between the odds and evens. In the end Two is able to fix the groups feelings toward each other and all the numbers dance and sing in harmony. I believe the message in this book is don’t be scared to make new friends and include everyone.

February 23rd, my mom looked exhausted from working so I decided to help her wash the dishes. My mom was very grateful that I decided to help her. This act made me feel very happy that I could help my mom.

On the 11th of February, I went to the store and an elderly woman dropped some fruit cups on the ground. She looked as if she could not bend over to pick them up so, i picked them up for her. The lady looked surprised but, she was very grateful. This made me feel very warm inside.

“Morris Micklewhite and the Tangerine Dress” is a story written by Christine Baldacchino and illustrated by Isabelle Malenfant. Morris is a little boy who loves using his imagination. He dreams about having space adventures, paints beautiful pictures and sings the loudest during circle time. But most of all, Morris loves his classroom’s dress-up center — he loves wearing the tangerine dress. But the children in Morris’s class don’t understand. Dresses, they say, are for girls. And Morris certainly isn’t welcome in the spaceship some of his classmates are building. Astronauts, they say, don’t wear dresses. One day when Morris feels all alone, and sick from the taunts of his classmates, his mother lets him stay home from school. Morris reads about elephants, and puts together a puzzle, and dreams of a fantastic space adventure with his cat, Moo. Inspired by his dream, Morris paints the incredible scene he saw, and brings it with him to school. He builds his own spaceship, hangs his painting on the front of it and takes two of his classmates on an outer space adventure. Overall, I think this is a great book for younger generations to help get rid of stereotypes.
