Along his adventures, he learns a lot about himself and others Spark conversation with: Why did mother duck take care of an egg that wasn’t her’s? Why did the other animals pick on him? Should we pick on anyone because of the way they look? Why not? Is there ever a good reason to pick on anyone? If you saw someone picking on someone else what would you do? When could helping someone be dangerous for you? The ugly duckling ran away when he got picked-on. Do you ever think it would ever be smart to run away from home? What does it mean to be beautiful?

    Frog & Toad - A Swim by Arnold Lobel

    Frog and Toad go for a swim and Toad doesn’t feel great about his bathing suit. Discussion starters: Why do you think Toad wears a bathing suit? If Toad doesn’t want anyone to see him in his bathing suit why does he wear it? Does Frog do the right thing telling the others to stay away? Do you think any of the animals on the riverbank would have noticed Toads swimsuit if Frog didn’t say anything? When does it make people feel good to laugh at them? When does it make people feel bad to laugh at them? How do you know when it’s ok to laugh at someone? Do you think Toad's feelings are hurt at the end of the story? Does what someone wears have anything to do with whether they are a good person? What should have the other animals done?

    As You Wish by Tyler W. Kurt

    A trunk of toys is found and a special woman offers to help them change how they look. Spark conversation with: Beagle asked for a new leg. Was that ok? Why or Why not? Dolly asked for a new dress. Was that ok? Why or Why not? Rabbit asked for new better eyes. Was that ok? Why or Why not? Panda and Elephant asked for less stuffing so he could be thinner. Is that ok? Why or Why not? Giraffe asked for a shorter neck. Is that ok? Why or Why not? Unicorn asked to be turned into a horse. Is that ok? Why or Why not? Sad Bear would rather stay himself than change to happy bear. Why do you think that? What makes it ok to change something about your body? If someone asked you to change something about your body would you do it? If you (just you not because of anyone else) really wanted to change something about yourself what would you change?

    Frog & Toad - The Shivers by Arnold Lobel

    Frog tells a scary story and gives Toad “the shivers”. Discussion starters: What about Frog's story is scary? Do you like to feel scared sometimes? Why do things seem scarier when it’s dark? Are ghosts real? I wonder. If you trust someone a lot, like your parents, should you believe everything they say? Why won’t Frog tell Toad if the story is real? Do you think Frog’s story is real? Why or why not? What does it mean to be scared? Why might make-believe stories make your body act like they are real? How can we figure out if a story is real or make-believe?

    Where Do We Go When We Disappear? by Isabel Minhós Martins

    Nothing lasts forever, so where does it go? Socks, rocks, puddles, the sun, snow, noise, me and you, what happens and why? How do we know? Do we know? Spark conversation with: What happens to boiling water? Does it disappear or just change? What does it mean to disappear? Can something turn into nothing? What is nothing? If you could, would you want to live forever? How long is forever? Is there something besides our physical body that makes us “us”? If there is something besides our bodies, what do you think it’s made out of? When someone dies what do you think happens?
