Read my in-depth post about this amazing book

Then read this book with your children for Back To School!

We prepare our children with school supplies, new clothes,

lunch boxes, bike helmets, the works.

However, do we spend enough time preparing them to

treat others with kindness? Do we teach them to look for the new

faces or those who may be a little different and include them

at their lunch table or at recess? This is a great book to read with a

Young Women Group, also. The message is vital.

The Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes

Do you have a child who is apprehensive about starting

school and/or leaving you. Are apprehensive about having your
