Can I Join Your Club?
Written by John Kelly
Duck is trying to make friends and decides to try joining a club. He tries to join several clubs including Elephant Club and Lion Club. Those clubs won’t let him in because he can’t roar like a lion or trumpet like an elephant. He decides to start his own club. Anyone can join his club.
Ms. Melly’s second-grade Cub reporters recently reviewed this book. The book teaches about empathy. Empathy is when a person can relate to someone else’s feelings.
Almost all the reporters in Ms. Melly’s class said they enjoyed the book and thought it would be a good book for students in kindergarten to fourth grades.
They said other people will enjoy this book if they like animals and animal sounds.
They also said that “Can I Join Your Club?” is good for people to learn about how to include others in a group. The book also teaches about being kind.
The reporters suggested that this book would be a good book for DePaul’s Peace Room.
