Me and the Boss: A Story About Mending and Love
Big sister Zora and little brother Lee attend a sewing workshop at their local library. Sewing comes easily to Zora while Lee struggles with it, but he perseveres and practices through the night and finishes the Smiling Moon project from the library, and mends his sister’s bear and the hole in his pocket! This engaging, easy-to-read resource, with large, detailed mixed media illustrations, can launch class discussions and writing activities about patience, perseverance, problem-solving, the power of reflection, building confidence, and sibling relationships, and provides an opportunity for creative and critical thinking when discussing learning a new skill and goal setting.
