Talking points:

Lucy Lady Bug, by Sharon King-Chai: How do we treat people who are different than we are? Why is diversity important?

Will Ladybug Hug? by Hilary Leung: Why is it important to ask permission before we hug? What alternatives are there to hugs? It is ok to not want to hug. How can you communicate that? What kind of touch is ok? How can we express our affection while respecting others boundaries?
