BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
When Molly’s mom tells her they are going to the food pantry the next day, Moly doesn’t understand why her mom looks so sad. Even when she sees her school friend, Caitlin, in line, Caitlin also looks embarrassed to be there. Molly’s mom has always told her that everyone needs some kind of help sometime, so why is everyone around her look so sad?
I love Molly’s of message of dignity in realizing that you need some help. As a teacher you should be sensitive to your audience if you read it aloud – you never know what secrets your students are keeping.
