The delightful stories and poems have these themes: accepting yourself; sharing; caring about others; kindness; being grateful; doing what is right instead of yielding to peer pressure; sharing rather than fighting; telling the truth; being considerate; being careful about strangers; and realizing it is not your fault when someone is abusive.
This book can be used for regular, remedial, or enrichment instruction because the ages of the children are not shown. Most stories only have animal characters.
