April's Gift

Have you ever been the new kid in school? How scary it is with no friends, not sure where to go or what to do. Friendship is so important, no matter what our age. A true friend is always there for you with respect, help and hope. Everyone needs friends, and everyone needs to make friends!
Bullying has been around for generations. Someone bigger and stronger intimidates or influences someone smaller, weak or different. While many have been bullied in school over the years, the current generation is dealing with an escalation of bullying like never before. Inflicting fear and pain on others has turned into sport for some kids.
This story strikes both friendship and bullying issues. Pull up a comfy chair and let the farm animals tell the story we all need to read. Strongly unique in personalities and lifestyle, the animals offer all of us a
valuable lesson that despite their differences, they have opened their hearts to accept each other!
Shouldn't we all strive to live this way?
