Jo and Ron were rushing to get to their classroom, but they stopped when they saw a broken bottle in the hallway. Ron wanted to clean it up.At first, Jo hesitated, but she changed her mind when she found a broom and a dustpan and went back to help Ron. The children’s thoughtfulness made them late to class and they missed out on receiving a reward for punctuality. Jo cried and blamed Ron, who felt terrible, but tears turned to smiles when it was announced that they’d both won the “Unselfish Service Award” for keeping others from getting hurt.


Growing up in the Philippines, Dolores D. Bennett wrote articles about whatever inspired her to reflect or made her laugh. When she retired from teaching GED classes in 2019, she was scheduled to go to Spain as a missionary, but COVID-19 canceled her plans.  While quarantined; however, she began writing her biography, His Hand on Me, which was published in 2020. In 2021, she published six children’s books: The Big Black Feather, The Wise Hen, The Hen’s Dream, Cutita and Vaquita, PupPup the Bully, and Stories of Boogie’s Friends. In 2022, aside from The Sky Is So High, she plans to publish Spike and Spike, The Rock, A Surprise Reward, and Mr. Williams and Nugget.
