It’s always a good idea to be nice. Here’s why: Sometimes there are consequences
for our bad behavior. Here’s a story
about a boy named Glen who loves to complain and lie. One day Glen strays away from his classmates
on a class trip in the woods. He encounters a tiny creature who helps him find his way back to his classmates. But Glen does what he does
best…complains. The tiny creature warns him that if he continues with his awful
behavior, he will turn into something more useful. Of course Glen ignores the
warning. After he returns to his class he realizes something
has changed. He refrains from his usual meanness until he comes across a stray dog and kicks it when he thinks no one’s looking, which triggers the
final change.
Read A Dog's Breakfast and find out what
happened to mean Glen. This is a quick read by Annie Graves with black and white
illustrations by Glenn McElhinney.
