Download or read book Corbilina and the Purple Lady written by Dorothy M. Pritchett and published by BookLogix. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The language children hear is too often one of hate, anger, and prejudice. Corbilina, a little fairy, teaches children a valuable lesson by introducing them to another language—one of compassion and kindness. This language is called heart language. In this story, Corbilina, who has no voice, shows a young child and her grandmother how kindness transforms sadness whenever you listen with respect. Children learn how actions, not just words, demonstrate compassion. Corbilina encourages kindness to the environment by leaving heart shapes in nature, which remind children and adults to value Planet Earth. Children will not only enjoy the story but will engage their imaginations when they answer creative questions at the end of the story. These questions open the door for conversations to build self-esteem and to encourage greater awareness and concern for the needs of others.
