Children in grades K-6 can read along and listen to author Julia Cook read RJ’s social skill story about asking permission and making an apology. One track on the CD features the text only while a second track includes cues on when to turn the page for beginning readers or English Language Learners. Families can practice reading together while being entertained and learning valuable social skills for home and school. RJ is making a lot of trips to the time-out chair. Without telling anyone, he and his best friend Sam decide to walk home from school instead of riding the bus. Later the two of them are caught trying to use Dad’s computer to get on the internet. After their piano lesson, RJ and his sister Blanche snack on Mom’s triple-layer double-chocolate cake with whipped cream frosting and spoil Grandma’s birthday party surprise.
