Tuesday Oct 01, 2024
A challenging project has Kiddo and his friends frustrated. They need to construct something that can protect an egg for their school’s Egg Drop event, but each friend has tried their own ideas without success. Mimi reads the book Five Brave Knights vs. the Dreadful Dragon, a story about kids facing similar, though fire-breathing, frustration. What can we do when our individual efforts aren’t enough?In Hebrew, the word for “together” (yachad) shares the same root as the word for “individual” (yachid), illustrating how every group is made up of individuals. Your uniqueness is a superpower, but it can be combined with others’ to achieve big shared goals.
The book Mimi reads in this episode, Five Brave Knights vs. the Dreadful Dragon, was written by Netalie Gvirtz and illustrated by Menahem Halberstadt, and published by PJ Publishing.
