Publisher's Synopsis
Library of Congress Control Number: 2010915394 This is a drawing book of six stories about homelessness to help your child develop positive attitudes about homeless people. To become involved mentally and emotionally, your child can draw pictures that correspond to parts of the stories. The child is also asked to talk about his or her emotions as they read the stories and draw their pictures. An opportunity to submit drawings for publication is included in this unique concept to raise awareness of homelessness. Instructions To Children On How To Use This Book 1.
