The Heroes of Maple (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781976503771)

When an evil Dragon kidnaps the Queen of Grace and Courtesy, the Heroes of Maple must work together to save the day! Young readers will be captivated by the hilarious antics of the Knights of Peace, the quiet wisdom of the little otter librarian and the sage guidance of the astronomer owl. As the heroes quest to save their queen, they learn to solve their problems with non-violence and empathy. Along the way, they learn valuable lessons about community, acceptance and responsibility. Accessible and fun for all, this light-hearted adventure tale highlights and reinforces the main tenets of Montessori learning. Actual classroom lessons and activities are cleverly translated into story-based challenges in a fantasy world of elves, trolls and pixies. Silly, positive and fun, The Heroes of Maple encourages young readers to be peacemakers, not troublemakers! ***The Heroes of Maple was written with the input and creative ideas of the Maple Room, a lower elementary classroom at the Hill View Montessori Charter Public School. The students and teachers of the class are all represented in the book with characters that share their names. A portion of the sale price of each book sold will be donated to the Maple Room!
