\nGiving Back Excerpt:
\nBilly stood up on his tippy toes to reach his money saving jars. He wanted to see how much money he had in his \u201cGiving\u201d jar. As he stretched his fingers pushed the jar further back on the shelf, of course, that was the moment Emily walked in the room and asked, \u201cWhat\u2019cha doing?\u201d
\n
\nFeeling frustrated, Billy took a deep dragon breath, in and out, before responding to his sister. Then he said, \u201cGetting my \u2018Giving\u2019 jar. I want to see how much I have to share.\u201d
\n
\n\u201cI\u2019ll get mom. She can reach the jars and I want to see how much I have too.\u201d Emily returned with their mom.
\n
\n\u201cSo, you guys want to count the money in your \u2018giving\u2019 jars?\u201d Mom said. \u201cBefore I get them down, let\u2019s talk about what you would like to do. Do you have any ideas?"
