A great interactive book to get your kids or students (8 and up) thinking and talking about moral choices.
There are 25 problem stories and the reader is asked what he or she would do in each situation. There are also thought questions at the end of each story which facilitate great discussions about moral choices. Has received excellent reviews!
Excerpt
Which is more important: How much money a person earns or how much he helps other people? What would you do if you saw a friend shoplifting? Is there an "easy way out" of hard work? These are just some of the questions following each story to get the reader thinking about what he or she would do in that situation. The choices our young people make today may very well govern their actions for years to come.

BOOKVIEWS by Alan Caruba
"Great Kid Stuff! A lot of parents these days are worried about the messages being sent children as they watch the news on television about behavior which is deemed wrong by most standards but seems to go unpunished. This book is the answer as it offers up challenging situations that emphasize the importance of personal integrity, compassion, loyalty, self-discipline, and other qualities we all want children to acquire."
NAPRA Review
"Whether read independently or with the guidance of an adult, these vignettes wil give young people the opportunity to form the personal values that will guide their actions in years to come."
