Show moreThis story is appropriate for all teachers to share orally with their classes around Louisiana festival time. As a teacher, I would read this story to my class for the students to gain knowledge about community events. There are few stories about Louisiana festivals to teach children cultural traditions and means of celebration. There are limited resources for teachers to use that connect students to Louisiana Folklife. Students in Louisiana are diversely different than children from other states, my goal is to provide this story as a model to be part of the change to do better for the children of Louisiana.

Show moreThe purpose of this story is to encourage children to turn to reading as a form of escapism. So many children have no one to turn to, some are made to feel ostracized by their family, to feel insignificant for being different. The author’s purpose in writing this story is to give those children a way to free themselves from that narrative. This piece of Realistic Fiction is written for anyone who needs to be reminded of what it’s like to be a child and have little power over what happens around you. A teacher may use this story in a classroom for children to free read before lessons, after students complete work, or as a tool to encourage all students to explore the magic of reading.
