Rachel will stop crying. I will stop crying. |

|
Rachel lost my yellow-greenish flower ring. |

|
Rachel was crying. |

|
I was crying. |

|
Shya found the ring in Rachel's cubby. |

|
We gave each other a hug! |
This book was born out of true Kindergarten trauma- a friendship that was almost ruined over a lost toy! The story
of the lost ring was one of the first ones that was shared with the class when we began to talk about our "Me Stories."
The student began to work on writing it down, and even went to the other child in the story to ask her version of the events
and to talk it out as she was writing. By the end of her book, she had written a classic that the whole class could
relate to, and her friendship had been saved!
