The sweetness of making new friends—and making treats to welcome new neighbors—are central themes in this wonderful picture book on how the smallest kindness can make a tremendous difference.
After their neighbor shares her story of growing up in Poland, sibling rivalry is repurposed into teamwork. With help from Dad, twins Leah and Dexter make paczkis, the jelly-filled treat from Poland, which they deliver later that day.
With illustrations that will make you crave your own paczkis, The Jelly Donut Difference by award-winning author Maria Dismondy carries a message of sibling rivalry, the power of community, and inclusion.
This book comes with a free downloadable Reader’s Companion, complete with discussion questions, lesson plans on story mapping, and five tips for children to share kindness with the world.
