Homer the H-Shaped Tree is a delightful story for all children. Small children who have not yet learned to read, will enjoy curling up in their parent's or grandparent's lap and hearing the story read to them. Young readers will learn, as Homer does, that what we wish for ourselves, isn't as rewarding as what we give to others. They will also learn about friendship, and to accept and appreciate the differences in themselves and others. Homer, the H-Shaped Tree also teaches children that everyone has selfworth, and that when we strive to change the lives of others in a positive way, we often change our own life as well. This book will help children understand that it doesn't matter how short or tall, heavy or thin, nor does it matter what color we are, EVERYONE IS SPECIAL |
