The kids at Stanton Elementary School are curious as to why their school closes Tuesday after the first Monday in November. Greetings from Random House Children’s Books “Vote for Our Future” by Margaret McNamara and Micah Player. By being herself and exploring what she loves, Daisy makes a new, true friend. Her head hangs low at the evil words of others, but when she looks down, she discovers all sorts of forgotten and lost objects: treasures on the forest floor.ĭaisy covers her special fort with these treasures, and soon she discovers that someone else has added her collection. In Jessixa Bagley’s book – recommended by Zsamé Morgan from Babycake’s Book Stack in the Twin Cities – Daisy the Warthog is bullied by other animals who do not think she lives up to the beauty of her name.
This beautiful metaphor becomes a point of calm and pride for the boy. “You speak like a river,” his father tells him.
