A teacher from last year’s Critical Friends program said that one of her students kept bringing his first book back.  She would tell him, “No, this book is for you to keep.”  Finally, the child’s mother came in to return the book.  The teacher explained that the book was her son’s to keep.   A few weeks later, she noticed the little boy pulling the book out of his backpack.  She went over to tell him again the book was his to keep.  He said, “I know and that is why I always keep it close to me.”
