What a wonderful way to help children learn about being special, brave, loved, smart, patriotic, nice and fast. It covers each word, helps children see how they should want to be all of those things and gives them clear examples of doing just that.

This review is from: Casey And The Amazing Giant Green Shirt (English and Spanish Edition) (Paperback)

What a wonderful way to teach children the value of positive words. This is a must read for every elementary aged child and their parents. Casey is relatable to children, and he is a great role model. The story teaches how we feel when we use positive words and how we feel when we use negative words, and the consequences of both. I highly recommend this story to anyone who works with children.
