Once there was a place where artists created perfectly imperfect, unique puzzles. Joy, beauty, happiness, and cooperation flourished. Then something sad happened — uniformity and rules were imposed, and what was once exquisitely infinite became finite, regulated, and ultimately broken. This is the story of Ubuntu: the African value of shared humanity. Children will be reminded to value and honour differences and the importance of diversity, collaboration, freedom, and compassion.

Reading this book
opens a conversation.

Each book in the collection includes conversation starters — questions designed to move from story to the kind of meaningful exchange that plants values in a child's heart over time. These are the conversations that form character.

Conversation Starters

◇What makes you unique? What is something about you that nobody else has?

◇Why do you think the puzzle makers were happier when everyone was different?

◇What does Ubuntu mean to you? Can you think of a time when you needed someone else to be whole?

◇ How do you feel when someone celebrates something different about you?

◇What is one way you can celebrate someone else's difference today?
