Is it wrong to sneak into the movies if your big brother says it's okay? If "everybody" is cheating on the math test, shouldn't you, too? What if telling the truth gets your best friend in trouble?

It's never too early for us to begin talking to children about values and helping them define and clarify their code of moral conduct. This interactive book helps kids formulate their own value system in the face of peer pressure, even when following their own conscience means going it alone. The twenty-five contemporary scenarios presented in this book are situations that children can easily identify with, and the questions at the end of each chapter encourage productive, in-depth discussions about the moral choices suggested by a particular story. Readers can personalize each short tale or use them as jumping-off points to make up their own scenarios to fit specific circumstances. What an entertaining way to learn vital life skills!
