Although we read many books this week, I wanted to mention one in particular called The Empty Pot.
This is a delightful story, set in China, of an Emperor who needs to find a successor. He gives all the children in the land seeds to plant and tells them he will choose the child with the most beautiful flower in a year's time. I won't ruin the story for anyone who wants to read it, but it is a tale of honesty and courage. I highly recommend it.
To see what others are reading, see Mouse Grows, Mouse Learns.

This sounds really good! I've never heard of it. I'll have to check and see if our library has it!
