Preocuparse por los demás/Caring

July 1, 2011

PreS-Gr 2-In this series, children are introduced to four character traits. Each book begins with a definition of the featured trait. On each page, a situation shows its application. Andy finds a purse and gives it to the teacher; he is being honest. Students in school keep their eyes on their own test; they are being trustworthy. Nathan shares his toy with his best friend because he cares. And Kyle invites Sarah to play on his baseball team because he knows that she wants to play. The vivid acrylic illustrations make the presentations attractive and give continuity to each spread. Children will enjoy these simple offerings.-Ana Rodriguez, Tamarac Elementary School, FL
