My IB Life Quote of the Month:

We’re Imagineers! Wondering about Great Books for an IB Life?

Are you ready to be inspired to be more imaginative with other PRINCIPLED imagineers? I think that the 3 books I am recommending this month will be great ones for us to talk about acting in a PRINCIPLED way. Of course they are really enjoyable stories too. Here are the three titles! 

Front Porch Tales & North Country Whop‐ pers by Tomie de Paola

The King and the Seed by Eric Maddern

Yours Truly, Goldilocks by Alma Flor Ada

What books will you recommend to others?

Principled: Someone who acts with integrity and honesty, with a strong sense of fairness and respect for all.

Would you let the group think it was your idea ?

If you don’t tell where you got the idea, is that right or Principled?

What would you do?

“Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the “To catch the reader's attention, place an interesting sentence or thinks you can think up if only you try!” —Dr. Seuss quote from the story here.”
