Rocket into Ricky's World

When Ricky and his younger brother have an argument, Leo the paintbrush teaches them about the importance of respecting siblings. Together, the boys and Leo learn about standing up for one another, respecting each other's belongings, and not being bossy. Additional features to aid comprehension include a table of contents, a section on using respectful words, a S.T.E.A.M. activity, a phonetic glossary, sources for further research including web sites, an index, and an introduction to the author. It's time to brush up on respect! Take readers on a journey with a lively cast of characters as they learn about respect and why it's important to respect parents, peers, the environment, and more! Engaging sidebars illuminate concepts and promote further discussion, while 'Respectful Talk' sentence starters and STEAM activities encourage students to explore respect in the classroom and at home.
