description: In this upbeat picture book acclaimed authors Irene Latham and Charles Waters bring key themes from their earlier collaborations ( Can I Touch Your Hair? and Dictionary for a Better World ) to a young audience. Rhyming verse describes different ways in which readers can be a bridge from welcoming a new student and listening respectfully when someone else is talking to standing up to a bully and comforting a classmate who is upset. Nabila Adani's cheerful illustrations depict a diverse group of students including young versions of Charles and Irene.
