Parent Guide > The Fairy's New Year Gift
Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "The Fairy's New Year Gift" by Emilie Poulsson.
In "The Fairy's New Year Gift," a fairy gives two boys books that track their good and bad behavior.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Fate & Free Will and Morality as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
"Can we control our fate?" and "What is good and how do we know?"
