Synopsis

In this, the second episode of the Rosy Adventure Series, an accident causes Rosy to doubt whether she can complete her annual Christmas Eve assignment: Delivery of reward medallions to generous and brave children. Many kids may be disappointed! That's where Fred comes in, and the race is on! Does she make it in time? And how exactly does she cover her route with a hurt ankle? Is Rosy, herself, brave enough? These books are perfect for reading to your children and grandchildren, expecially if you are interested in teaching them about generosity. The first book in the Rosy Adventure Series introduces Rosy, Santa's twin sister. She is the "flip-side" of the whole idea of getting gifts: she rewards children for being generous and brave. She delivers gold medallions to these children. The Rosy series makes it easy for kids to learn about generosity and to be generous, through therosyclub.com website. Every book features a Rosy Partner, varying in their ethnicity and nationality and with different assistants. There are Rose Bernstein, Rosa Linda Sanchez, Rosa Mae Parker, Rosio of Peru, Rosina of Italy, Rosemary of Ireland, and more to come. Each of the Rosy Partners are called Sheroes, and their Assistants - Fred the goose, Milton the cat, Clyde the mule, Chopper the dog, Gustavo the llama, Luigi the mouse, Charlie the Leprechaun, etc., are called Heroes. The boys and girls, Sheroes, and Heroes in each book must deal with bullies, new schools, wildfires, storms, earthquakes, kidnappers, a wild bull, and other problems. These books are designed to be read in about 20 minutes to a child or grandchild. A third-grader can read the books to herself or himself in the same time. There are audio books for each book. Listening to the audio book while pointing out words in the written book is an excellent way to accelerate reading skills.

À propos de l'auteur

Ellen H. Lancaster is a wife, mother, grandmother, lawyer, college professor and artist, living in the Bay Area south of Houston. She began writing the Rosy Stories as a reaction to one Christmas, when the spirit of "giving" seemed to have turned into the spirit of "getting". This is her anti-greed campaign, an attempt to send a message, in a humorous way and through adventures, that being generous has its rewards. She has been active in children's charities for years, including the Boys & Girls Club, Assistance League, and The Lunch Group, Inc. A portion of profits from these books goes to selected children's charities.
