Living in The World of Shapes Martha J Rogers

What is the most valuable thing in this world? What makes Life in this world Fun! Interesting! Exciting! Together with these little champs let's go visit The World of Shapes.

This is a unique place, where you will ?nd the country of Triangle ?lled with green apple A's, and the country of Square ?lled with beautiful blue B's. You will see the country of Circle ?lled with cherry red C's, and the country of Rectangle ?lled with dark brown D's. All is calm and all is great...until one morning, a beautiful blue B wakes up and sees how boring it is to be all alike. Together, A, B, C and D discover the joys of connecting in life and valuing their di?erences.

You just might be surprised what you ?nd there. I hope you will ?nd something very important about YOU. And how YOU can be a Civility Champion too!

This is a story for children of all ages which illustrates just what civility is--treating others with respect and kindness. Just as each letter of the alphabet is needed and important in the world of communication, every person has a valuable gift to offer in this world. So instead of being critical or afraid of differences with others, we can choose to value our differences. By sharing our knowledge and personalities, our gifts and talents, we can work together more effectively. We can have more fun together. We will create a more complete and beautiful picture of Life together. That's how we make this world a better place!
