Review # 1 was written on 2008-06-23 00:00:00 Sydney Schanberg A special book about love and forgiveness as an orphan travels to her Uncle's looking for the home she has never know. A special plus of the book is that even characters that seem mean (Aunt Viloa) are really trying to do what they think best and have reasons for what they do. A great book that provides in a children's format the AA message of how to live. A great book to read for the New Year. It takes place just after Christmas.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-02-13 00:00:00 Dale Anderson This book is a legend about Saint Martin De Porres. He was a monk. In his Priory lived a colony of mice. At first the mice did no harm, only eating what they needed. Unfortunately, the colony was found so they had to move or be killed. Brother Martin was ordered to kill them with traps or poison but he could not follow the orders to kill God's creatures. So he promised the colony if they moved to the barn he would feed them every day. The mice eventually moved to the barn and Brother Martin did in fact feed them every day and everyone lived in harmony. One lesson students could do with this book would be to complete a venn diagram. They could read another legend picture book and compare and contrast between the legends. Another idea would be to have the students come up with other ideas of how to save the mice. They could split up in groups and come up with a advertisement, march chant, or another idea of how to save the mice.
