Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the meaning of the words "human race," beginning with the illustrations. On the second page, the city park is filled with people of different ethnicities, sizes, shapes, and professions, all of whom are racing onto the page and off again. Who are these people? Where are they going? Do you feel that life is a race? Do you know what it means to be part of the "human race"? Do you agree with the boy that if we don't help each other, we will surely crash? Take a closer look at the last few pages. What are all the people doing now? What could you do to help build a community in your park? Could you work in a garden? Help during a clean-up day?
