Thankful

At this time of year, we contemplate all that we are grateful for: family, friends, food and shelter and a sense of community. At the FJECC, we partner with parents to help children appreciate their good fortune. Here are some of the books the Red Room uses to teach these skills of gratitude and empathy:

One Winter’s Day by M. Christina Butler

Just Enough and Not Too Much by Kaethe Zemach

The Story Blanket by Ferida Wolff

Sam and the Lucky Money by Karen Chinn

A Chair For My Mother by Vera B. Williams

The Teddy Bear by David McPhail
