This story beautifully highlights the values of empathy, kindness, and standing up for others. Levi’s journey from feeling ashamed to experiencing pride and joy in his handmade costume shows the power of genuine care and family love over material things. His parents’ efforts and the principal’s encouragement turn what seemed like a setback into a celebration of uniqueness and hard work.
The principal’s thoughtful support sends a strong message to Levi and his classmates about respect, resilience, and the importance of not judging others based on what they own. It’s a touching reminder that the value of something made with love is far greater than anything money can buy. And Levi’s generous, forgiving heart at the end is truly inspiring, teaching kids to choose kindness and understanding above all else.
This would make a great feel-good read for families, especially around Halloween!
Woman goes to say goodbye to gravely ill pregnant sheep – then finds miracle in the straw
Everyone who’s had the privilege of experiencing the miracle of birth knows that it can be messy and it doesn’t always follow a prescribed schedule.
Mixed into the excitement and joy, there’s always a twinge of anxiety in the air until it’s assured that the birth went well.
And that’s exactly how Amy Hill felt when her 10-year-old sheep Dotty was expecting lambs.
It’s not like there was a reason to think anything would go wrong—Dotty had given birth several times before and had always produced healthy offspring—but this time, everything would be different.
Sonwy River Farms in Nova Scotia, Canada raises animals without using genetically modified crops, and the animals are taken care of in a humane and ecologically friendly manner.
The farm has many animals, but Amy Hill has always held Dotty in special place in her heart, as she was Amy’s first female sheep.
