My Review

I like children's books that teach lessons. They not only make good reads but educational as well. Books like this are great conversation starters for the whole family. 


This book teaches an important lesson about Jealously. It shows that yes, you will experience jealously but there are ways to express how you feel and appropriate ways to handle the situations. This book is an easy read for young readers. I know that my niece who is eight years old, did not issues read this book on her own. She was able to identify the various situations featured in this book. We could talk about them together. 


At the end of the book is a section that helps to spot jealously in different age groups. Also, five tips for adults to help ease jealously in children. The author also provides resources to organizations that can help as well.
