The Magic Bag (Bolsa M\u00e1gica) Project began last July, when it was enabled at a communitarian library.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Magic Bag Project functions thus: after a bag (a backpack) has been bought, each week a surprise book is put inside the bag. At each meeting, a child is chosen by chance and takes a specially chosen book. It will read the book with the family and register its impressions of all about the work. The child that was chosen on Sunday, takes the bag home, and makes the commitment of reading the book, must not tell anyone the story, but may ask for help from its parents to read the book with it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-87023 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05-200x112.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_05.jpg 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the following meeting, the child returns and is invited to narrate the story, telling what it has read, if it liked it or not. It will report what it thought of the book, what was its understanding of its message. Then, the reading is done of another book with all the children, so that the group talks and explores the topic of the reading. Then, a playful activity is conducted, with drawing, games, etc. Also a souvenir is offered to each child (a pencil, eraser, notebook, a piece of chalk, a drawing to color, etc.) as a way to encourage study.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Network-of-Light groups of Guaruja and Santos chose the work of encouragement to reading also as a way to work values, critical sense, seeking to awaken a new look to the world, showing how it is possible, with little actions, to imporove the life and quality of interpersonal relations.<\/p>\n<h3>Involving others<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-87013 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria-300x212.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria-200x141.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria-400x282.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria-600x423.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_biblioteca_comunitaria.jpg 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The initiative has expanded so much that other people, who are not part of the Network-of-Light have donated children books and comics, collaborating with the task.

Their perception and their purity find a great resonation in children tales\u201d, expressed Rosi Freitas, of the Network-of-Light of Guaruja. \u201cIn one of these meetings, the summary of the book \u201cThe Sower\u201d (O Semeador) was made, and we began to talk about good seeds. Each child gave an example of a good seed: not to hit anyone, not to swear, to obey, to respect, etc. We had enchanting answers. I became impressed with their perceptions of \u201cgood sowing\u201d, although they are inserted in a social-economic context of great difficulty\u201d, admitted Rosi.<\/p>\n<h3>Enriching exchange<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-87016\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04-200x112.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.fraterinternacional.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/rede_luz_guaruja_morrinhos_leitura_criancas_04.jpg 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI am a teacher and have always been involved in service activities, whether with children or animals.

Firstly, what I learned, during this event, is that every task, however small it seems, has a value. When we serve, we are the greatest benefitted. There is a learning in each situation. Each being that passes by us leaves a little of them with us and takes a lot from us. This exchange is fantastic.
