Flutterby Fly helps keep the butterflies in line, at least when they aren't distracted by gossip...When her flock becomes afraid, Flutterby helps them learn that they can't believe everything they... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is geared for elementary school aged children. All Serendipity books have a moral to the story and this one is about acceptance of who you are and to be happy with you as a person. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses and you don't need to be like someone else to have value. Flutterby will have young readers feel the frustrations of not fitting in with groups. It will have them feel empathy towards someone who is different and hopefully be more accepting of others in real life. When I read it to students we often have a group discussion about it being ok to be different than others and to accept those who may dress differently, speak differently, etc. This book shows children what it's like to be on the receiving end of ridicule and will hopefully be a lesson they don't forget as they get older. Flutterby is excellent in helping students understand that differences between people are acceptable and not something of which to be afraid. The combination of an incredible story and amazing pictures makes this book a winner for the classroom or the home library.
