HIT: self esteem titles

[Bonnie LaClave <blaclav@IN-MOTION.NET>]

Hello Friends,
        A few people asked for the results of my inquiry about good titles
for self esteem.  Here are the replies I got:

Try any books by Kevin Henkes, Pfifer or the George and Martha books by
Marshall.

I can't wait until I can have e-mail working at school! ...  I think the
author is Rylant - a book of short stories about animals.  The titles
running through my head all sound like that English vet.  Anyway I have
used the Rylant stories grades 4-6.  The story I'm thinking of is "Slower
than the rest" but the title of the book is something else. maybe has
creatures in the title.

Amazing Grace by Hoffman.

I really like Tacky the Penguin.  It is fun and speaks to being true to
yourself.

Try Hoffman's _Amazing Grace_.
It is a picture book about a black girl who wants to be Peter Pan in the
school play.  I think older kids would like it, too.

There's the very old-fashioned _Little Engine that Could_.

Thanks again to all who replied!  Hope everyone is off to a good start--or
getting ready for a good start, anyway!
