Learning Friendship:  

SALE--Only $1.99! We guarantee you'll LOVE it!

Alligator's sharp-toothed smile scares away all the other animals, and he wants a friend. Since dogs are friends with everyone, he asks Dog how to become a canine. 

Following this advice, Alligator attempts to sleep on a human bed, pant with his tongue and ride in a truck with his head in the wind (all difficult to accomplish as an alligator). 

This story is not your typical "Be content with who you are," but rather "Achieving difficult things transforms you into something more." 

In the end (don't spoil the surprise), Alligator becomes ALLIDOG! This is a metaphorical example of how we all change after achieving hard goals--but most of all, it makes kids laugh.

Overcoming Anger:

T-Rex is ashamed of his terrible temper and when he sees a peaceful herd of long neck dinosaurs, he decides he needs to be a long neck too.

As he figures out how to control his temper, he magically transforms into a mixture of his old self (T-Rex) and new self (a long neck Diplodocus), turning into REXNECK THE HELPFUL. 

Not only an educational story about overcoming anger, this tale is also a metaphor for how we all transform after accomplishing difficult things.
