It’s
important to understand the power that stories have in a child’s
life. Stories are the kindergartener’s window outside of his
or her limited world of family, home and the familiar surroundings.
And when a child connects with a character in a story, he or she
is engaging in a journey of self-discovery—a search for identity.
For example, in “Porcupining: A Prickly Love Story,”
Cushion the porcupine laments his single state. Alone and unloved
in the petting zoo, he writes a four-line ditty expressing his woes
and decides to court potential partners with a soulful serenade.
Surprised and dismayed by his negative reception and totally unaware
of the disparaging innuendoes in his personalized lyrics (he croons,
"And though you're pink and fat," to the pig; "And
though your teeth are bucky," to the beaver), he is about to
give up when he meets Barb, a similarly solitary hedgehog.
Children connect with Cushion as he searches for a place to belong
among his peers. They watch him meet rejection and they journey
along with him as he tries and fails. They are interested in how
Cushion will handle the negative experience, and then they celebrate
with him as he finally triumphs in his search for friendship and
belonging.
