What is a child to do? These eight parables, or tales in rhyme, deliver serious social messages in a fun and creative way. We visualize the positive actions to be taken on the following themes: "be a friend to have a friend", "selfishness is silliness", "fear is forgotten", "life can be good", "it is what we can do that matter", "we are all able", "confidence is catchy", and finally, "differences are delightful". Despite positive examples at home and school, children tend to lose sight of the ways and means to be good neighbours and friends. The contents of this book speaks not only to children, but to adults alike, about qualities we all wish to instill in our youth.
