Are you searching for a UNIQUE collection of children's stories that focus on character-building? Bedtime can be a very difficult time of the day for most working adults. Adults are tired and the children seem to be performing as well as the energizer battery. This author utilizes her 32 years of experience (as a teacher and administrator) to purposefully write short bedtime stories that provide parents, caregivers, counselors, and educators with an enjoyable, thought-provoking resource for embedding character traits in children. This book includes ten (10) original short stories that focus on caring, courage, dream (goal-setting), empathy, friendship, honesty, kindness, love, respect, and support. Each story is short enough to hold a child's attention yet detailed enough to provide quality time for a parent, counselor, caregiver, or educator. To extend the learning, the A, B, Cs (Reasons to Plan), 1, 2, 3s (Actions to Take) and the MORAL are detailed at the end of each story. This provides talking points/tools to engage an individual or group of children.
