Sharing Stephen Presents the Virtue of Charity by Frances Angelina talks about virtue sharing and the joy it brings. Helping children learn about good virtues from a young age and showing the beauty these add to our world will make them enthusiastic and, therefore, would help them keep those values as they grow up. Frances starts off by giving her personalized and the dictionary meanings of a caregiver, sharing words kids can say that could bring smiles to the faces of others, and writing their interpretations in nine languages. The themes of kindness, love, and care are portrayed in a fun way. I particularly loved the story of Susie because of how comprehensively these themes were portrayed. There are other virtues displayed, like learning about charity, sharing, saving money, and using it wisely.
In every sentence, I felt Frances Angelina's exciting, friendly, and conversational tone. There are lots of activities to keep children engaged, like sharing their thoughts and opinions on their favorite pets, favorite colors, best shapes, hobbies, and more. The drawings, paintings, page layouts, and border designs are other details that caught my attention. I spent time reading this short book because I carefully examined the different images, objects, emojis, text styles, border designs, and color choices. This book showed me just how important professional foster caregivers can be. I recommend Sharing Stephen Presents the Virtue to children from 3 years and above and parents and guardians looking for a fun way to instill good values in their child(ren) or ward(s).
