Gorp's Dream.... A tale of Diversity, Tolerance, and Love in Pumpernickel Park

Gorp's Dream.... A tale of Diversity, Tolerance, and Love in Pumpernickel Park by Gorp as told to Sherri Chessen. Library Binding edition. ISBN: 9780972424905.

Bullying starts at an incredibly early age... ...and often leads to dangerous results as the news bears out every day. Gorp’s Dream very gently shows our kids how kindness is contagious and can help create a safer environment for all. The art and text are age-appropriate and a joy even for adults to read and heed. “Books not Bombs”, as one Purple Heart Vet told me. Teachers, librarians, churches, police departments, parents everywhere, and the National Education Association have used this book to teach lessons of kindness and to try to eliminate the development of bullying. As it’s easier to train a toddler than to re-train a troubled teen, the book has been lauded for its ability to instill these delicate and hard-to-teach lessons in even our youngest children. Simply put, they love Gorp and seem to readily absorb his life-saving teachings. As cartoonist Bil Keane wrote, “Whenever I read Gorp’s Dream, the air seems to be filled with love. Six thumbs up from all of us in the Family Circus!” Available as a Kindle eBook and as a print book with library binding. Also available is a companion 48-page Teachers Guide, prepared by Tracy Atwell, M.Ed. Scroll up and order your copies today.
