Publisher Comments:

"Hey, little ant." So begins a conversation between a young child and the ant trembling in the shadow of his sneaker. This playful story brings up questions about ethics and peer pressure, encouraging the very youngest citizens to decide for themselves: to squish . . . or not to squish? 1999 Honor Book, Jane Addams Peace Association.Gaining worldwide recognition as a tool for teaching tolerance.Soon to be printed in eight languages.Educators, please visit our Resources section, above, for teaching guides and curricula.Visit the Hey, Little Ant website: www.heylittleant.com

Synopsis:

What would you do if the ant you were about to step on looked up and started talking? Would you stop and listen? What if your friends saw you hesitate? Thats what happens in this funny, thought-provoking book. Originally a song by a father-daughter team, this conversation between two creatures, large and small, is bound to inspire important discussions. It might even answer that classic childhood question: To squish or not to squish?
