With the age of the children I work with, there is always an issue of sharing. Many kids at this age are in the "mine" stage and everything they touch is mine, mine, mine. They are too young to understand the concept of sharing. And what can you do about it. Well I found this book and fell in love with it. Not just because of the children I care for and that it will be a big help when trying to handle a "mine" episode in the future, but because it reminded me of me. I too was at the "mine" stage at one point and "mine" only made sense to me when I was saying mine. But when someone had what I wanted, boy was I ready for THEM to share which is what happens to the boy in this book. It is a joy to read and the illustrations are wonderful too.
This IS a fun book to read to children. I enjoy your blog and the layout. I am looking forward to working and learning with you. Take care Julie
