SUMMARY:STORYTIME WITH LATIA
DESCRIPTION:Join six-year old Peter as he journeys across town with his family to visit the dentist. \nAn elaborate office\, embellished in a Zoo-like theme\, gives a warm welcoming feeling to all of its pediatric patients. The office’s Dental Hygienist Ms. Stacy guides Peter step-by-step throughout the entire procedure of his dental cleaning\, as she introduces all the fancy tools and equipment that she uses during the treatment. Yummy flavors are always an incentive\, for getting your teeth polished; as the choices are endless. The removal of sugar bugs off of the teeth produce a sparking smile\, while radiographs help to ensure there is no tooth decay\, which may be underlying. Peter learns about taking x-ray pictures and gets a lesson on home care instructions to maintain a healthy dentition. Goody-bags and treasure prizes are such a treat\, making Peter’s trip to the dentist complete.\nA pleasant time with the Hygienist and Dentist\, makes Peter look forward to his next dental visit!

SUMMARY:Virtual Story Time with Mother Dove
DESCRIPTION:Do you have or know a young child/ student who exhibits low self-esteem? Are you having trouble finding ways to best support them in developing their self-confidence? If so\, look no further! \nThe newly released children’s book\, I Can… Just Try!\, is about a young girl named Terri who thought she could not do anything because she was just too little. She wouldn’t even try until one day her attitude shifted. Terri learned the power of saying “I Can” by just trying. \nAs we know\, many children are like Terri and struggle with believing in themselves. In fact\, some children are so uncertain of themselves\, that they don’t even try. This new children’s book\, I Can… Just Try!\, was written to help children just like Terri. Change their way of thinking by no longer saying I can’t\, and instead affirming and believing\, “I CAN\, all I have to do is Just Try!” \nThis inspiring illustrated book shows how young Terri learns that she can do anything she sets her mind to\, all she has to do is “Just Try.” Terri is now ready to inspire more children just like her\, leading by example.
