About

Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and sentence highlighting for an engaging read aloud experience!
In this upbeat picture book, acclaimed authors Irene Latham and Charles Waters bring key themes from their earlier collaborations (Can I Touch Your Hair? and Dictionary for a Better World) to a young audience.

Rhyming verse describes different ways in which readers can "be a bridge," from welcoming a new student and listening respectfully when someone else is talking to standing up to a bully and comforting a classmate who is upset.

Nabila Adani's cheerful illustrations depict a diverse group of students, including young versions of Charles and Irene. Scan a Page Plus QR code at the end of the book to download a Bridge Builder Pledge. An ideal book to share with students in the fall to set the tone for the whole school year!
"[A] great book to start the school year, to help create rules for the classroom, or to start discussions about connecting to others."-Children's Literature
"Latham and Waters reteam for this rhyming exploration of how children can learn to be a "bridge," building key connections through kindness."-Publishers Weekly
"A charming and welcome read bound to help cultivate a kinder next generation."-Kirkus Reviews
