Good Night, Mr. White!

Friendship is very important, especially to children, why? Because it's by the bonds developed with their friends, especially during the formative years, that makes them happy, they learn right from wrong, develop values, understand the importance of kindness, and even experience hurt and disappointment. Marcus Meekens is an adorable eight-year-old with a smile that lights up a room, and a warm heart. His favorite foods are ice cream and Skittles. When he learns his elderly neighbor, Mr. White, is without family or friends and very sad, Marcus sets in motion a plan to find Mr. White a friend and a family so he will be happy again. His plan starts with buying Mr. White ice cream. Good night, Mr. White is the second of the Combined Story Workbooks for Children (CSW), developed and written to entertain children of course, more importantly, to stimulate their thinking and reasoning ability, and educate them to safety measures for their daily protection. Parents, grandparents, teachers, and daycare providers will enjoy reading the Combined Story Workbook (for ages 4-10) with their children while educating them academically and enforcing child protection measures.Good Night, Mr. White is an endearing tale of an unlikely friendship forged between 8-year-old Marcus and his 81-year-old neighbor, Mr. White. The relationship between Marcus and his mother is both warm and reassuring enough to make any parent or child smile. With a focus on everyday moments-breakfast, last day of school, ice cream outings-the book sets up a poignant theme of empathy and compassion. An excellent choice for middle-grade readers or families reading together. -Editor, Celia Pool
