Kiddo Learns About Gossip
Kiddo tells Mimi of a rumor that the creepy old house in their neighborhood is occupied by a wizard who has his whole yard booby-trapped! Mimi decides to dispel the myth by bringing Kiddo to the house to meet its owner, her friend, Mr. Johansen. The man is very kind and very much not a wizard. In fact, the only magic comes from Mimi, who transports us all with a new spin on a traditional Jewish folktale about the dangers of lashon hara, Hebrew for evil language or gossip. Meeting Mimi's friend helps Kiddo learn not to judge people by their appearance. And the tale Mimi tells can remind us all of the difference between sharing some interesting info and spreading something that could be hurtful.
