Decision Is Yours Series
illustrated by Rebekah Strecker
Reviews and Comments
- “Some books would have everything turn out perfectly if the protagonist makes the ‘right’ decision. This particular book supports good choices, but also makes it clear the good choices do not always have perfect outcomes. . ..Each book [in the Decision Is Yours series] deals with common dilemmas. . ..At the end of each page, the reader is asked to make an ethical choice. Based on the choice, the story takes a different branching path. Positive, negative and intermediate outcomes are available. Have recommended this series to an elementary school that was developing an ethics curriculum.”
