Reading Circle - Just a Dream by Chris van Allsburg
In this picture book classic, travel with young Walter on a fantastical adventure as he journeys--by way of his bed--into a polluted dreamscape world that wakes him up to our collective and individual environmental responsibility.
Walter does not appreciate the beauty of nature, or understand his role in keeping the planet healthy . . . until a fantastic journey shows him the tragic fate that could befall Earth if humans like him are not more careful.
Chris Van Allsburg (The Polar Express) pairs pitch-perfect narrative with his full-color pastel illustrations, rendering this picture book a story that has stood the test of time.
Two-time Caldecott Medalist Van Allsburg reaches a new pinnacle of excellence in both illustration and storytelling in his latest work. (Publishers Weekly)

Politeness
Being polite means being respectful. It is not about being cool, but about being good-natured instead of being cold .
Politeness is about being gentle. When we are gentle we are sociable. When we are sociable we are neighbourly raised. We like our friends.
A polite person greets the others. For example, we say " hello "; we say "hi"; we say "how are you ? '' . In Australia, people say '' G' day ''.
When we are polite, we are friendly and people love being with us.
When we are impolite, we are not easy-going, so people don't like to be with us.
Are you polite ? Is your family polite ? Are your friends polite ? Are your friends polite and friendly with you ?
Polite individuals are gentle, civil, and most of them are friendly.
So, to have many real friends with you, you need to be polite. People love polite people.
