"We introduced the books to our classes in a shared reading format. We found that the students really liked learning about the different characters and how the characters reappeared in each book. We really liked how the lesson for each story related to the kindergarten and primary curriculum, touching on personal character, kindness and inclusion. Our students were also choosing to look at these books during free time, which was great to see. We look forward to using all of the books next year too!""
