Our Children's Social Studies Textbook: "So What?"

The best thing about this book is that it's fun!
The second benefit is that it shows children the power of solidarity.

Children who are bullied don't always say, "So what?" from the beginning.
He barely manages to say, “So, so, so what?” to his friend Pauline, who supports him.
Seeing this, the children gradually gain courage and learn from each other.
Now, even if you're not attacking yourself, shout together for your friend.
“So what!”

Notice that at first it was a question mark, “So what?” and now it’s changed to an exclamation point.
Children don't just fight back verbally; they convince themselves that criticism and attacks from others can't have a negative impact on them.
As children read this book with laughter, their mental muscles gradually become stronger.
I'll do this too! It grows into "We'll do this."

Children also learn that bad kids aren't always bad.
Basil, the playground tyrant who has learned from his children to resist external attacks, stands up to his older brother who bullies him.
And I decide.
“Tomorrow, I’ll apologize and we’ll be friends!”

Basil also has a new opportunity.
This is the greatest value of "So What?"

An experience of empathizing with others and gathering strength from tender hearts.
In it, our child's inner strength grows.
