If you have or know of a child who has
a physical disability, then this is a wonderful story you will want
to share with them and anyone else you may know. This heartfelt story
of friendship will warm your heart.
In a piney forest lives a field mouse
named Henry and his spider friend Boris. Both friends help each other
compensate for what the other lacks. Henry can't hear and one of
Boris' eight legs is curled and doesn't function at all. Henry was
fast and could beat all of the other mice during races, he couldn't
hear the terrible things they would say about him. Boris could spin
story webs with words and pictures that Henry loved to read. Other
spiders would bully and poke fun at Boris for being so creative, and
not like them. Fed up by the cruelty, Boris and Henry venture out to
find a new home away from the mean creatures of the forest. But, when
fire threatens the home they once knew it is up to them to save the
other animals of the forest, cruel or not.
This wonderful rhyming tale of
acceptance will have young readers learning and understanding that no
matter what disability one has, each and every person should be
treated with respect and everyone has something to contribute.
Parents and teachers will love sharing this colorfully illustrated
book with young readers. This is an excellent tool to use for
teaching young minds about our differences.
