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

Last week, in Coming Across Jordan, two new students had come to Harriet Tubman Elementary School in Philadelphia- Jordan who was in kindergarten and Kevin who was a sixth grader. While all the attention was on Jordan, Kevin sat at a table feeling grateful that no one had noticed him.

Our newest selection is Coming Across Jordan by Mabel Elizabeth Singletary.

Enjoy another episode of Behind the Story with the Author where Mabel Elizabeth Singletary shares the inspiration behind the third book in The Double Dutch Club Series -A Promise and A Rainbow.

This is an encore presentation of Chapter 16 - A Day to Remember part 2.

In our last episode, it was the night before the big block party and Rachel had difficulty sleeping because she still hadn't finished her poem. Aunt Marion surprised Rachel and Veronica with beautiful new dresses in their favorite colors. Things took a turn for the worse when an unexpected storm appeared and put their event in jeopardy.
