We are building a text set of picture book read alouds around the four Lakota virtues of generosity, wisdom, courage and fortitude. While some of these books may be 'multicultural', other books which are engaging read alouds that can be used to address these themes are being included. They must be age appropriate for 5s and 6s.
We are good to go on generosity (the g is just my indication for the teachers of the appropriate virtue). Mama Panyas Pancakes/G Under the Lemon Moon/G The Quiltmakers Gift/G The Runaway Rice Cake/G The Perfect Orange: A Tale from Ethiopia/G Kumaks Fish: A Tale from the Far North/G Rabbits Gift/G Boxes for Katje/G The Teddy Bear/G Peters Chair/G Listen to the Wind/G One Hen-How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference/G Those Shoes/G However, I would welcome any suggestions for books which will fit the other categories.
