ECSELent Adventures™ / Book 2
Theo’s Deliciously Different Dumplings
Featuring beloved characters from the Housman Institute’s ECSELent Adventures™ program, Theo’s Deliciously Different Dumplings invites children to join a group of friends as they begin to understand and manage their own feelings and those of others, all while exploring what makes them unique and what binds them together.
When Theo gets nervous about his first day at a new school, he’s sure a lunch box full of his favorite homemade dumplings is just the thing to make him feel better . . . or is it? One teasing classmate isn't so sure about this unfamiliar food, and he isn't shy about letting Theo know.
Learn, grow, and develop alongside Theo and his classmates as they discover the importance of understanding, accepting, and embracing the many wonderful things that make us different, as well as one thing we all have in common - our emotions!
