Story Books for Kids

As a teacher, I want to reach my students. To do so I have to try and get into their heads, act like them, and try to think like them in order to teach them the lessons that they need to learn and understand. These books were created after teaching thousands of kindergarten and elementary students. Kids will be kids! We must love them for who they are and show them the best way.

 

The Monkey That Loved To Ddongchim

Lee may seem like just any other monkey but his love for curry, Taekwondo, and having fun make him a unique character. When Lee decides to move from the jungle to the city, he enters a different world of diverse people he must learn to get along with. His friendliness can only be matched by his funny spirit. The only problem: he doesn’t know that his favorite custom, the Ddongchim, is funny for some but very offensive for others.
