What is All Aboard, We Are Off About?
This special book tells the story of a kind woman who sells apples to children. She meets them every day before and after school. One day, she takes the children on an amazing trip.
A Journey to Unmapped Lands
The woman takes the children to places that aren't on any map. These imaginary lands are designed to teach them important lessons. The main lesson is about finding a good balance in life. This idea is called moderation.
The Lands They Visit
During their journey, the children visit several interesting places. Each land helps them understand why it's good to not have too much or too little of anything.
- The "Land of Play"
- The "Land of Food and Drink"
- The "Land of Sleep"
These places help the children learn that too much of a good thing can sometimes be a problem. For example, too much play might mean you don't finish your homework. Too much food might make you feel sick. The book teaches that having a balance makes life better and more enjoyable.
