Overview

"The authors, all nine of them, have written a fable. Just as in Aesop's, each of the animals have characteristics that are all too human. Each student wrote a section of the book and all collaborated on the story. The students laid out the plot in storyboards showing their animals with what many call disabilities. They then created and drew their characters. After stringing individual stories together, they added the ""glue"" of transitions and color. In your hands, you will find a delightful tale with joyful illustrations and a message. Each animal finds a way to fit in while appreciating differences in others. This class of fifth-graders began their work before Covid19 and continued over the next three months using Google Docs and Drive while connecting through Zoom meetings with their teacher, Tiffany Jones, and Nancy E. Randolph of Just Write Books. Overcoming technology and shelter-in-place challenges, these students have learned the lessons of resilience, perseverance, and creativity under stressful situations. Those lessons should serve them well in their future days. Read their book. You, your students, your children, your grandchildren, and just about anyone will enjoy this engaging read-aloud book."
