Once upon a time there was a beetle who loved to tell everyone how fast he could run. “I am the fastest insect in the park,” he would say. His slow and steady friend the snail, tired of hearing him brag, challenged him to a race. “Ha,” the beetle thought to himself, “there is no way a snail could ever win against me.” On the day of the race, all of the insects in the park gathered to watch. The centipede waved a checkered flag to start the race. The beetle zoomed past the starting line as fast as he could, while the snail carefully inched herself forward bit by bit. The beetle cried out “You will never win this race at that slow, slow pace.” Out of breath from running, the beetle eventually reached a small pond of water. He thought, “I have plenty of time. I just will go around the pond.” The beetle sped off on his way. Inch by inch the snail crawled along the path. As she reached the pond, she thought, “It would be much shorter if I could somehow float across the water.” Perhaps I could build a boat. The snail gathered up some leaves, twigs and vine. She fashioned a small boat that helped her glide smoothly across the water of the pond. When she got to the other side, she hopped off the boat and could see all of her friends waiting for her at the finish line. Little by little the snail crept along the path until she crossed the finish line at long last. All of her friends cheered. “Hooray for snail!” they cried. A moment later the beetle came running across the finish line. “I can’t believe you beat me!” he said. “You know,” the snail replied with a smile, “being the fastest isn’t always everything”. “Sometimes if you just slow down for a moment and think about your challenge, you can come up with great solutions.”

Meet Donovan, a lively boy who loves running, jumping, and flapping his hands when he gets excited. One day at school, Donovan felt extra bouncy as he entered the classroom. His teacher, Ms. Carter, began talking about feelings, and Donovan’s excitement grew—soon his hands were flapping in the air! Some classmates noticed and wondered, "Why does Donovan flap his hands?" Ms. Carter smiled and said, "Everyone shows their feelings differently. Some people cheer, others jump, and Donovan flaps. That’s okay!" Donovan felt proud, knowing his flapping was just how he showed excitement. Then, Ms. Carter introduced a game called Superhero Breathing to help the class calm down when big feelings got too much. She stood tall, breathing in deeply and exhaling slowly. Donovan tried it too. He stood up, took a deep breath like a superhero, and felt his energy calm down, but he still felt strong. His classmates thought it was so cool, they joined in, practicing superhero breathing together. They learned that everyone expresses feelings in different ways, and that’s something special. Donovan still loved his super flap, but now he had superhero breathing for when he needed it. The class kept practicing together whenever their feelings got big. By the end of the day, Donovan realized his greatest superpower was just being himself. Ms. Carter reminded them, “Our differences make us unique.” Donovan felt proud of his super flap and his breathing skills. His classmates celebrated their own special ways of showing feelings too. Feeling proud and unstoppable, Donovan knew that with superhero breathing and being himself, he could handle any big feelings that came his way. 22 pages

Grandma’s Volcano Story Vika loved asking Grandma questions. Grandma always had great answers! “Grandma, how did the volcano get there?” Vika asked. Grandma smiled. “The Earth has big rocks under the ground. These rocks move, like boats on water. When two rocks crash together, hot liquid called magma comes up. This makes a volcano!” Vika thought about boats bumping—Splash! She could see it in her mind. “When a volcano erupts, hot lava comes out,” Grandma said. “Smoke, rocks, and ash fly in the air. That is why we must be careful.” Vika looked at the volcano near her village. Sometimes she saw smoke. “When the volcano erupts, the hot gas and lava push through a hole on top. This hole is called a crater,” Grandma explained. Vika listened. Grandma was very good at explaining things! “Did you see a volcano erupt, Grandma?” Vika asked. “Yes,” Grandma said. “When I was little, the volcano near our village erupted.” “What did you do?” Vika asked. “We stayed inside and closed all the windows and doors. Then, our village leader told us to move to a safe place.” Vika imagined Grandma walking to a safe village. She looked at the volcano. It was quiet today, but if it started smoking, she would listen to Grandma!
