We All Need Something Sometimes - Hardcover

by Tyler S. D. Kukla (Author)

In this rhyming story, an inquisitive first-grader's interest in another student's toy leads to a helpful conversation with her teacher about the difference between a child's wants and needs at school. The repetitive phrase "We all need something sometimes," consistently highlights the message of the book, as Bea McGee realizes that equitable does not mean equal. Readers will gain perspective that there is a difference between needs and wants, and that they themselves experience both -- just like the characters. The story addresses the varying needs at school, spanning from special education modifications, social supports, socio-economic challenges, and everyday happenings in the classroom. It is a story of empathy and understanding.
