["Dale J. Ledgerwood" <ledger@EPIX.NET>]

A few people asked me to post a hit, so here it is:

Check:

========================================================================Power Kids 
Press, a division of Rosen Publishing has a number of titles
which might work for you.
========================================================================Pendleton 
Elementary School has a list of books that tie in with their
"Core Ethical Values.  Lisa Jessup, Library Clerk will mail you a copy
if you E-Mail her at pendleton@home.com
========================================================================Consider 
"Honus and Me" by Gutman.  In it a young boy has to decide
whether or not to give a valuable baseball card back to the old woman
whose attic he found it in.
========================================================================This site 
offers a character education reading list for grades K-5.

========================================================================Our school 
runs a program called "Tools For Life's Challenges and we
focus on a number of the same topics. Even though they are geared to
younger readers our upper level teachers use the "Little Bill" series by
Bill Cosby just to get the students thinking and talking about these
subjects.
========================================================================
I just got some video tapes to look over from a company in Texas.  I
think it's called Nest.  Each tape is a biography and each biography
emphasizes a particular character trait.
========================================================================A good 
title for responsibility might be "On Your Honor" by Bauer; one
for healthful lifestyle might be "Mick Harte Was Here" by Park.
