A Bear, a Moose and a Princess Bob Stein

Children will enjoy and grasp an easy to understand enlightening message of diversity, tolerance, and acceptance through the unlikely friendship of a bear, a moose, and a princess. At first, it doesn't seem that such a dynamic trio would have anything in common. This book demonstrates that by looking beyond our outward appearances, friendships are far more powerful than our differences. Through the daily adventures on the ranch, the bear, the moose and the princess are able to see that they connect with each other as they share experiences like fishing, playing soccer and basketball, and riding on the tractor through the pasture past the garden. This charming story empowers children to have the courage to be friendly to those that might appear different but are in fact very much alike. It shows that even small acts of empathy and compassion make the world a little bit better. This book also admirably depicts that in embracing our differences, we can surprisingly gain so much more out of life than if we show intolerance, simply based on our outward characteristics. A great life lesson and message throughout this book that can be applied to anyone or any situation regardless of age.
