I enjoyed each of the illustrations, but the messages are the most important parts of the book. It can be used as read-aloud to 3rd and 4th graders, and they certainly would be intrigued by each of the stories. I particularly like the workbook with its tangible activities to engage students so they capture the true message of the story. I think this book would be of much interest in schools where character education is a strong focus."<br /> -- Judith Nuss, Social and Emotional Learning Specialist, CASEL, Rutgers University Instructor, (SECD) certification program</p> <p>"<strong><em>The Light Giver</em> </strong>encourages positive, social-emotional behavior through a variety of stories. These tender and touching stories include characters that our young and adolescent students can relate to in today's world. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Peggy's stories and highly recommend its use in our schools as part of a character education program."<br /> --Deborah Giannuzzi, Former Supervisor of Curriculum and Instruction, Retired Principal, Adjunct Professor and Member of the Little Egg Harbor Board of Education in NJ</p> <p>"A well-researched, beautifully written resource for teachers, parents and anyone working with children and young teens. <strong><em>The Light Giver Stories</em></strong> and <strong><em>Workbook</em></strong> are a must read for parents, teachers, social workers and children alike.
