Overview

Ben runs to his grandma, Mimi, for comfort and advice after being bullied. Mimi tells him he needs to forgive the other boy. But Ben is afraid to. He wonders if forgiving the boy means they are friends. Forgiving sounds too hard, and he admits to Mimi he just isn't ready. Mimi says unforgiveness is like a weed, and as long as Ben refuses to forgive, that weed will continue to grow and grow! But how can Ben pluck that weed out when he's still so hurt and angry? Told in rhyme, the story shares the importance of forgiveness in easy-to-understand language. Children are also treated to seeing a strong, supportive family that relies on a God-centered approach to helping one another with their problems. Mimi's wise advice and seeing what happens give a wonderful reminder to us all that forgiveness leads to having compassion and grace for others (and ourselves).
