There are tons of books out there and as Jen Jones says, you need to read tons and tons of books to get good enough to help kids. I stumbled upon this one last year and just have rediscovered how much I love it!
This one is a gem....

Theme
Kevin is a Koala who likes his life the way it is in the savannah. People encourage him to try new things, but he doesn't like change so he stays in his safe tree. Then one day his tree is knocked down and he learns that trying something new can actually be the most fun!
The illustrtions are amazing, and the message is great.
Your students will love it!
Happy reading!
