By far one of the sweetest stories I've read in a long time, this book is a great tool for teaching the benefits of generosity of spirit and kindness. Amos McGee is not your ordinary zoo keeper. Mr. Mcgee takes a personal interest in each of his zoo animal's eccentric needs and nervous tics, and then goes that extra step by tending to, and offering comfort to, these rather unusual animals. When Amos McGee stays home sick one day, his strange animal friends return the favor, and come to visit him, offering him comfort and kindness in his time of need. One could say this is a perfect example of karma.
