Oh, The Places We’ll Go! by Dr. Suess. Not only a kids book!

Kids learn to make a difference through the adventures of this tribe of primitive characters. The Mukies, who are too loyal for anger, too happy for worry, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble, have to work through prejudice, border wars, friendship trials, guilt, bullying, and finally peace keeping. There is the eternal search for peace and justice. Do they find it? Can a single individual make a difference in the world? Kids 8-12 are challenged in their thinking skills and decision making experiences. Order today for only $6.99 at Amazon.com and Smashwords.com
