Everyone Matters
A FIRST LOOK AT Respect for Others

Children learn that having respect means treating everyone fairly. But there are some types of respect that each person must earn for themselves--by keeping promises, by being honest in what they say and do, and being polite and respectful to others. Most important of all, boys and girls learn that people who are different deserve just as much respect as close friends. .

Written by psychotherapist and counselor Pat Thomas, B.E.S. A First Look at . . . books promote interaction among children, parents, and teachers on personal, social, and emotional issues.
