The Treasure Hunt

Everyone in Little Bill's house has a special treasure — except Little Bill himself. It takes his great-grandmother, Alice the Great, to help him find the treasure that's all his own.

  • Little Bill's Mom, Dad, and brother Bobby all try to share their treasures with Little Bill. Why isn't he interested?
  • What makes Little Bill's treasure different from Mom's or Dad's?
  • Do you have a "treasure" that makes you feel special? Is it something you can hold in your hand, or is it something special about you?

    Drawing Conclusions and Making Inferences, Early Reading, Individuality, Understanding Self and Others
