Discussion questions
- 1In the story, Grandpa notices Little Llama's sadness and offers his own cherished stuffed llama to comfort him; how does this caring gesture reflect the biblical principle in Galatians 6:2 of bearing one another's burdens?
- 2When Little Llama realizes Fuzzy Llama was left at home and begins to cry at bedtime, what clues show how scared he feels, and how can we show compassion to someone who is feeling sad or out of place?
- 3Would you say Grandpa's willingness to share his special childhood toy shows what it means to be a loyal and loving family member, or was there a different moment in the day that best demonstrated his love?
- 4Retell the bedtime scene in your own words to describe what Anna Dewdney wants children to understand about feeling nervous in new places.
