My kids and I saw a terrific movie called the Tales of Despereaux. It is about a little mouse who was special because he was brave and truthful, just as every gentleman should be. This was part of a free movie summer series that our theater offered.
After the movie was over, my six year old son came up to me and stated I can't believe he was a kid. I said yes and thought of the implication of that for him. Even though I saw a movie about a brave mouse, he saw a movie about a kid, just like him. This was a kid who chose to be brave and truthful. I just smiled, thinking, even a mouse make for a fine role model.
