One Year Blogversary Event: Howard B. Wigglebottom Book Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

With Christmas coming up, I want my children to realize the meaning of Christmas and not just look forward to all of the gifts they will receive. We received a book from the We Do Listen Foundation entitled Howard B. Wigglebottom and the Power of Giving: A Christmas Story by Howard Binkow and Susan F. Cornelison. This book tells a great story of Howard B. Wigglebottom who learns how to be giving instead of thinking only of the presents that he would like Santa to bring him. This book teaches children to be thankful for what they have, a lesson that I think is important for all children. I hear mine whining for a new toy and I always use that time for a lesson of how fortunate they are to have a home and food, etc. There a various other Howard B. Wigglebottom books avaiable for purchase or you can view animated books for free online at We Do Listen.org!



More About the We Do Listen Foundation:

The We Do Listen Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) Not For Profit Corporation. Our intention is to enable children to enjoy inner peace and communicate in a more effective way.

We create entertaining, educational books, animated books, games and songs to help young children learn how to listen, feel good about themselves and deal with bullies and violence. Children who learn these skills will grow up better informed to resolve conflicts and will be empowered to change the world.
