Book Cover & Preview Text
While I live in a community, I'm a citizen of the world.
That fortunately connects me to every boy and girl.
No one likes to sit alone or to be chosen last to play,
I am a friend to others and help in any way.
I always practice kindness in all I do or say.
My speech and actions matter when at home at school at play.
I want to have all kinds of friends, not just those like me.
I know how boring my life would be without diversity.
While electronic games and computer time are part of every day,
I remember to look up to speak and put them down to play.
Thank you and please are important words that will make me stand out.
I use them often when I speak, I know that manners count.
I am a dreamer. What can I do or be?
I can make it happen; life's a possibility.
