Room To Grow Book Share Scheme ~ You Are Special ~ Book Review

When I heard of the scheme Room To Grown Book Share Scheme

I just know we wanted to be part of it.

The scheme runs from November to February.

The scheme's message is:

"If Room To Grow can help even a single

child understand or maintain

the joy of reading & create an 

everlasting affection of books,

then that can only be a good thing"

Anne Davies, Room to Grow

We love to read and with Little Red being dyslexic

we want him to keep enjoying it.

The scheme send you a book and you have 14 days to return it.

It costs you nothing and a prepaid envelope

is supplied for you to return the book.

Once the scheme is over the books are going to be donated

to a children's charity.

So the spread of the joy of reading can carry on.

We Received the book:

You are special by

Max Lucado

We loved the story!!!

The message behind the story is beautiful!

The story is around a man that carves small wooden people

called Wemmicks.

The Wemmicks go round with black dot stickers

and gold star stickers. 

If they think you are pretty or good at something

you get a gold sticker stuck to you.

If they think you aren't they stick a black

dot on you.

Punchinello is covered in black stickers and is very sad.

He hides away so no one will see him.

That is until he meets Lucia who doesn't have a single sticker.

When he asks how

she tells him to visit the woodcarver.

The woodcarver tells him that the stickers

will only stick if they matter to you.

The more he trusts his love the less

he will care about the stickers

and they will fall off.

Sure enough he believes he is worth something

and that he is loved.

Then the stickers start to fall off.

In our current world with all the bullying and hatred

this is a beautiful story

to teach children to ignore the horrible ones.

I love this book and plan on buying it for Little Red.

The art is beautiful and portrayed in a dreamy way.

And the story is well written

but easy enough for young ones to understand.

I give the book 5 out of 5.

At Room To Grow they offer real solutions for both parents and children. 

As a one-stop shop they will help you create practical, 

yet stylish bedrooms for your children, 

providing them with their own environment for play 

and study through ingenious designs and clever space saving features.

They have fantastic staff that can help you on your way.

They also give you loads of ideas and beautiful designs.
