Three

One, two, three . . .One, two, three . . . 
Every day was a skip and a hop for Three. He was happy to walk from here to there, wherever his nose led or wherever his legs took him . . . all the way to new friends.

Stephen Michael King's striking story of Three, a homeless three-legged dog, is filled with humour and has a clear message of accepting difference and disability. It reminds us to be thankful—even for the small things, and is a great resource for teaching empathy. Read by Lisa McCune.
