Read a sample Read a sample
At some point in our lives we consider what we want to be when we grow up. We may hear it as children playing with doctors’ kits or it may echo in our minds along with congratulations at graduation. The answers, however, can only be revealed when we are ready and willing to explore our possibilities. Imagine a dot so bored with its existence that it decides to take a journey. In “I am a Dot: A Tale about Punctuation and Purpose”, Dot encounters many characters along the way: a line, a hook, a semi-circular line and other dots. With each new relationship, Dot learns more about how it feels and what it wants through a selective process which leads to self-discovery. In the end, Dot develops a new understanding of its function and what it wants to truly be. As the story unfolds we are reminded that we have many choices about how we wish to function in our lives. The simple format of the story and charming illustrations support the underlying message about self-discovery while teaching an educational lesson about punctuation. The authors remind us that life can take many turns; that what feels right today, may not continue to feel like our true path. These transitions may happen at any time in our lives. This unique and exciting tale will provide support to those seeking to make a change in their lives or help others overcome unexpected, situational changes. It is a fun way for teachers and parents to help children learn the difference between a semi-colon and a colon, and about the many functions of a dot. Most importantly, it reminds us all to pay attention to our feelings. They are our internal road map and can show us the way to our hearts’ longing. “I am a Dot: A Tale about Punctuation and Purpose” by Jeanne Glassman Clair and Nancy S. Mure is a story that will delight, entertain and inspire children young and old to discover their own true purpose.
