Reviews
This series is a valuable and unique addition to any teacher’s resource collection. Each book focuses on a specific character trait - perfectly aligned with the IBO PYP Learner Profile attributes but equally useful for character education in any school with any curriculum. The stories and their characters are very accessible for independent reading, paired / guided reading, and as teacher readalouds. The delightful illustrations further enhance the key ideas and provide lots of detail for students to discover as they browse. The individual style of this series reflects the character of their authors and will be very appealing to teachers and students alike.

I believe that in order for students to develop the attributes of the Learner Profile, they need to see educators modeling this for them in their daily lives. This is exactly what the authors have done in creating this set of stories around the IB Learner Profile. This is a valuable addition to PYP classroom libraries and for any educator who believes in international-mindedness for a better world.
