In the Loud Boy series of children’s graphic novels, the main character’s father writes the fortunes that go into fortune cookies for a living. When we read one of the Loud Boy books in our P3 classes, we shared fortune cookies with our students. In the photo above, GaiusI is opening his cookie.
As you can see, it reads as follows: Use your gifts wisely, and they shall be enlarged.
Truer words were never spoken.
