In today's episode, we will read the book, The Story of Ferdinand (1936) is the best-known work written by American author Munro Leaf and illustrated by Robert Lawson. The children's book tells the story of a bull who would rather smell flowers than fight in bullfights. He sits in the middle of the bull ring failing to take heed of any of the provocations of the matador and others to fight.

Thank you for joining Reading Corner Seven a podcast original where we read The Story of Ferdinand the bull.

The moral of Ferdinand the Bull is to be content with who you are and to accept the people around you for who they are.

We hope you enjoy the read-aloud

In today's episode, we will read the book, The Gift of nothing By Patrick McDonnell.

In 2005, McDonnell embarked on a children’s book career. His first children’s book The Gift of Nothing quickly became a New York Times Best Seller. Art(2006), his second release, told the story of a boy named Art who makes art. His next release, Just Like Heaven (2006), heralding the joys of simple blessings, was hailed in a starred review by Kirkus as “a meditation on the true nature of miracles.” In 2007 McDonnell again returned to the New York Times Best Seller list with Hug Time, featuring a kitten named Jules who goes around the world hugging endangered species. Since then, he has produced two additional childrens books (South and Wag!)along with the 2012 Caldecott Honor winner Me…Jane, a biography about the young Jane Goodall, and The Monsters’ Monster.

Thank you join in Reading Corner Seven a podcast original where we read The Gift of nothing By Patrick McDonnell,

We hope you enjoy the story about Mooch the cat desperately wants to find a gift for his friend Earl the dog, but Earl already has everything. "What do you give a guy who has everything?" Mooch wonders. The answer, of course, is nothing! This simple story features characters from Patrick McDonnell's popular comic strip, Mutts, and has the same depth, charm, and heart that he gives to his daily readers.

Engage, Elevate and Empower's special family-focused podcast, series Reading Corner Seven, has been developed and performed by The District 7 Parent Coordinators with support from Family Leadership Coordinator, Timothy Coleman.

In today's episode, we feature the book title: Love you forever by Robert N. Munsch

Love You Forever is a story about a mother's continual love for her son as he goes through the stages of adolescence to manhood. Robert Munsch published the popular picture book Love You Forever in 1986 as a way of grieving loss of his two children. Overcome by this loss, Munsch wrote the book as an allegory of the unconditional and lifelong love that parents have for their children. Love You Forever chronicles the life of a boy as he becomes a man, as well as the life of his loving mother. The book has had two illustrators, Anthony Lewis and Sheila McGraw.
