Mac and Zach from Hackensack

Written in sparkling verse by George L. Rogers & beautifully illustrated by Stefanie Eskander, MAC & ZACH FROM HACKENSACK is the delightful story of twin brothers who are more different than alike. "For Zach was short where Mac was tall, & Mac was large where Zach was small. Where Mac was talented, quick & bright, Zach had trouble in doing things right." Nevertheless, Zach ultimately has the advantage over his twin brother: "For Mac was not a patient lad, & what he wanted, he wanted bad. He wanted it quick, he wanted it now, no matter the who, no matter the how." "...But with Zach, things were quite different for him, with his twinkling eyes, & his cheerful grin. For slow as Zach was, there were some things he knew from figuring them out & thinking them through." Learn what Zach figured out that enabled him to be cheerful & happy, even when things weren't all going his way. An excellent resource for both parents & teachers, MAC & ZACH FROM HACKENSACK is a "Read & Discuss" (tm) book designed to help children & adults explore the relationship between attitudes & self-esteem. 32pp. Rich colorful illustrations.
