A lesson accompanying the book for younger age groups — Lee the Flea / Lior Akirav
Lesson plan.
It can stand alone, or be part of a series of self-belief books.
About the book:
Lee wants to reach the Red Lake. Everyone around him thinks and believes it's impossible to jump out of the Land of Osh. But Lee doesn't give up, and tries to explore and understand how he's going to do it. One day Lee meets Trampoline the ant, who is the first to believe that Lee is capable. While they play, Trampoline the ant runs and shouts to Lee, and without even noticing he manages to do the unbelievable and reach the Red Lake. At the end of the story, Lee and Trampoline sit happily beside the Red Lake.
The story deals with self-belief — with the idea that where there's a will, the way will always appear. It teaches children the power of belief, and how ordinary, simple things can seem impossible, yet once you do them, they turn out to be simple.

The Main Messages of the Story:
- Believe in yourself
- Remember that the right Trampoline always appears to help you achieve your dreams
- If the will is there and it's strong, the way will always appear
- Dream big, even if something doesn't seem possible right now
- How did he not know he could do it at first? Just like in life — until you succeed at something, it seems impossible.
- Why a flea, of all things? And why this cute little flea? Because it's exactly the one we least expect to succeed — and besides, it's about time people stopped being afraid of fleas.
- Do you also have dreams you want, but the people around you don't believe in you?
