Produktbeschreibung
Oscar the Osprey is one of those must-read children's chapter books that teach kids how to get over embarrassment and humiliation, inspire others, and understand what self-acceptance means. It's one of those how-to books for kids that teachers can use to show their students how to overcome challenges in life and teach the consequences of lying. Unable to fly over the mountains, Oscar finds himself alone, left behind to fend for himself in a bitterly cold winter in the Tetons. Will he adapt to the challenges in his life and learn how to overcome the humiliation he faces for having an unusual flying technique that isn't how an Osprey is supposed to fly? Or will he give up and fail to learn how to overcome challenges in his life? Join Oscar as he meets other animals in the forest, challenges his elders, and unexpectedly learns how to inspire others. Elementary kids will learn about self-acceptance and see that everyone must overcome challenges. "A charming tale about deceit's tangled web with textured, kinetic illustrations." - Kirkus Reviews If you're looking for an artfully illustrated must-read chapter book or a how-to book for children, Oscar The Osprey: The Bird Who Was Afraid of Heights delivers both.
