Books Strengthen Friendship<\/span><\/h3>\n

One characteristic of quality books in children\u2019s literature is intertwining living values within the story in an indirect and intricate manner. Such books create opportunities for dialogue and activities on living values.<\/p>\n

Below, is the experience of a Read with Me school teacher in Qeshm island which shows how reading books can strengthen friendships:<\/h5>\n

Date: December 2019
\nLocation: Mahdieh Elementary School \u2013 Dargahan \u2013 Qeshm Island
\nBook: Just Right for Two\/ Author: Tracy Corderoy\/ Illustrator: Rosalind Beardshaw<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cJust Right for Two\u201d is a beautiful book with inviting illustrations and a lovely story, which talks about the importance of friendship.<\/p>\n

Today, I took children to the school yard for a Reading Aloud session. In the beginning I asked them why they had chosen their friends. What do you like about your friends that makes you continue your friendship?<\/p>\n

Children started to name the qualities of their friends. They explained their reasons in their own wonderful words:<\/p>\n

\u201cI like Fatemeh because she doesn\u2019t quarrel, just like me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI chose Yamna because she is kind and likes everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

Then I showed them eh book cover and started reading aloud after a brief introduction.<\/p>\n

In the part where Dog seeks something he had lost, children were curious to know what he was looking for. When reaching the narrative\u2019s climax, they got really excited and said: \u201cDog was looking for a friend, not his things!\u201d They delightfully smiled at their friends throughout. The space was filled with love and compassion.<\/p>\n

After reading aloud, children made beautiful handicrafts to give to each other as presents. They hugged one another and promised to always take care of their presents as a token of their friendship.<\/p>\n
