Mightywaybooks Presents: Kids and Kindness - Encouraging stories for children 8-13.

In our last episode, Rachel was surprised when Veronica agreed to invite some of her friends over. The afternoon would become even more special because Veronica's mom said she would prepare lunch. Unfortunately, after waiting for more than an hour, the luncheon never happened. At least this time, Rachel came to understand the problem.

In Chapter 10, Rachel's Aunt Marion believed Rachel and her cousin Veronica were getting along nicely. She even compared them to herself and Rachel's mom when they were girls. Unfortunately, Rachel couldn't get up the nerve to tell Aunt Marion how wrong he was. She decided to stay silent about the discourteous treatment she was receiving from Veronica every day.

In Chapter 9, we found that things weren't going so well for Rachel. Her parents were headed back to New Jersey and Veronica had made it clear that she was in charge. While remembering what her father said about showing kindness to others, Rachel couldn't see how she and Veronica could ever be Friends.

In our last episode, Rachel was on her way to her aunt and uncle's house in Chicago. Her feelings were mixed. Both her mom and dad assured her she was going to have a good time, but once she met her cousin Ronnie, Rachel didn't know what to expect.

This week is an encore presentation of A Promise and A Rainbow - Chapter 8 Arrival.
