Come with me.” Jim then runs towards his parents and shouts to his mother, “mommy, can you please give me the arm floats?”.

Page 4: XL explained, "We have to be careful what we say, because our words show what's in our hearts." "So we need to clean our hearts first?" Osh asked. Page 5: "Yes," Jesus said. "If we have kindness and love in our hearts, our words will be kind and loving too." "Like saying sorry when I'm wrong?" Ish asked. Page 6: "Exactly," XL smiled. "And complimenting Osh on his drawings?" "Even if they look like scribbles?" Ish giggled. Page 7: "Everyone makes mistakes," Jesus said gently.

Page 10: "From now on, I'll try to use my words to make others happy, not sad," Osh declared. Page 11: "Me too!" Ish chimed in. "Let's spread kindness, not germs!" They all laughed.
