Thank You, Dr. King! [Paperback]

Robin Reid (Author), Dan Kanemoto (Illustrator)

Book Description

Series: Little Bill (8x8)

"Hello, friend."

Children love to learn and are always figuring things out about themselves and the world around them. And the more they know, the better equipped they are to handle the challenges of growing up.

Little Bill encourages children to value their family and friends, to feel good about themselves, and to learn to solve problems creatively.

I hope young readers will see Little Bill as their friend and enjoy his real-life adventures.

Happy reading!

This review is from: Thank You, Dr. King! (Paperback)

"Thank you, Dr. King" is one of the rare books I like that is spun off from a tv show. It's from the Little Bill series and I think it's the best book out there for Preschoolers dealing with celebrating Dr King day. Racism is hard to talk about with a child. It's not impossible, but hard. The importance of Dr King is especially hard to teach since a lot of what he fought against is gone and young children like concrete things. Basically, this book says that we celebrate Dr King day because he helped make it so everyone can be friends. I am very sad to see the Nick Jr has canceled Little Bill. It was our favorite for a long time and helped me in not only raising a thoughtful child, but it also set the example of why multiculturalism is important and what it's like to be a little kid in a big city!
