Retold by Regina Gershman-Staroselsky
This book is a warm and educational children’s publication intended for children ages 3-7. The Power of the Magic Word is the story of a little boy who learns from an old man of the powers and benefits that arise from a single word: please.
This story is representation of etiquettes in the eyes of a young boy, who learns to understand that with the power of a certain magic word, miracles do happen in life.
Throughout my life, I loved writing and telling interesting and amusing stories to children and grownups alike. I found that teachers from my sons’ schools became increasingly interested in my stories and have asked me to do readings to their students from the stories that I wrote.
The author has written several other books on diverse genres for children and young adults.
