My Project

I am blessed to get to spend my days with an amazing group of five year old children. For some, it is their first experience away from their families.

These books will help them to see everyone is nervous about something and sometimes, it is good to see that others are nervous about the same things.

The Crankenstein books help them see everyone is not always in a great mood and how to navigate through that. Bob, Not Bob and Ida, Always are books that help them learn about friends and how to be a friend.
