December Book of the Month

Book of the Month continues at 217 with Those Shoes by Maribeth Boelts. Tied to this month’s PBIS theme of Compassion, Those Shoes tells the story of a child (Jeremy) who is being teased at school because his family cannot afford to buy the popular shoes other students are wearing. Jeremy later bought a pair of the shoes at a thrift shop, but they were too small so Jeremy gave them to another child anonymously, and they later became friends. 

​Please continue the conversation about Compassion at home!
