A children's picture book designed to entertain while providing an absolutely solid foundation of positive beliefs. Two stories involve a Japanese American father and daughter as they befriend a single mom and her two children who are new arrivals to the state and neighborhood. The stories are built around two of the beliefs from the Beliefs Menu: I Am A Fast Learner and My Feelings Are Important.
I Am A Fast Learner
Michelle Kato was a cheerful child with an easy smile. She even knew how to ask a question with a smile.
“Do you have any pets?” asked Michelle. “Yes, we have a kitty named Cotton Ball,” answered Katelyn. "We named her that because her feet look like a ball of cotton.”
“Does Cotton Ball like her new home?" Michelle knew all about cats because she had two of them herself. She said, “Some cats can be fussy, you know."
Michelle, a friendly six-year-old Japanese American with beautiful black hair down to her shoulders, was talking with her new neighbor, Katelyn Johnson, who had just moved from California to Washington state. Katelyn had stopped by Michelle’s house for a few minutes before school.
