The Character Education Hero Series teaches the six styles of communication using the Communication Animals: The Demanding Lion, the Convincing Fox, the Negotiating Zebra, the Teamworking Swan, the Supporting Elephant, and the Avoiding Turtle. This Character Education Book series helps children to identify the six communication styles so they can understand strengths and weaknesses of each style and develop their own Character Education plans. The goal of the Character Education Hero Series is for children to be able to master the positive traits of each communication style and incorporate them into their own natural styles. The purpose of this book is to teach children compassion and empathy. Reading and discussing the concepts in this book with children can help them to be compassionate with others during difficult times. Compassion is a building block of relationships, so learning compassionate skills is foundational to character education.
