Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Morris is a little boy who loves using his imagination. But most of all, Morris loves his classroom?s dress-up center and its tangerine dress. Morris is a little boy who loves using his imagination. He dreams about having space adventures, paints beautiful pictures and sings the loudest during circle time. But most of all, Morris loves his classroom?s dress-up center ? he loves wearing the tangerine dress. But the children in Morris?s class don?t understand. Dresses, they say, are for girls. And Morris certainly isn?t welcome in the spaceship some of his classmates are building. Astronauts, they say, don?t wear dresses. One day when Morris feels all alone, and sick from the taunts of his classmates, his mother lets him stay home from school. Morris reads about elephants, and puts together a puzzle, and dreams of a fantastic space adventure with his cat, Moo. Inspired by his dream, Morris paints the incredible scene he saw, and brings it with him to school. He builds his own spaceship, hangs his painting on the front of it and takes two of his classmates on an outer space adventure. With warm, dreamy illustrations Isabelle Malenfant perfectly captures Morris?s vulnerability and the vibrancy of his imagination. This is a sweetly told story about the courage and creativity it takes to be different.

Hardback. Condition: Good. In this lovely picture book, a young girl named Maggie gets her own pair of chopsticks. Now everyone insists on telling her how to use them. Her grandmother says, "Do it like me!" while she rapidly works her old wooden sticks with a "click-clack-clicketing." Her sister instructs, "Be graceful like this!" as she crosses her pair "back and forth, like legs, dancing." But it's no use. No matter how hard Maggie practices to be like the others, they keep telling her she's doing it wrong! Frustrated, Maggie asks her cat, the Kitchen God and her ancestors what she should do. Finally, her father gently tells Maggie just what she needs to hear. "Everyone is different. Everyone is unique," he tells her. "You hold your chopsticks perfectly." Author Alan Woo uses a poetic style to tell a timeless story about self-discovery and identity. It offers an inspiring message to young children about the importance of being true to yourself as you navigate the challenges of growing up.

It makes a perfect read-aloud during classroom observances of Chinese New Year. A few Chinese words are included within the story, with translations and phonetic spellings provided in the front of the book. Malenfant, Isabelle (illustrator).…
