When one toddler in a childcare setting takes all the toy animals for herself, she discovers that monopolizing all the toys can be a bit lonely. Will offering one of the animals to another child help bridge the gap? In this gentle exploration of early friendship, toddlers will recognize the tension between wanting everything to be “mine!” and the desire to connect with other children.
“This board book is perfect for little ones who are just learning how to interact with others . . . Soft backgrounds illuminate the story, whose diverse cast makes these lessons accessible to all” – Foreword Indies
“Seeboruth’s sparse, rhyming text—consisting of punchy, two-word sentences—delivers its message with aplomb . . . Corrin’s expressive, textured digital artwork ably brings the humorous but believable characters to life. Altogether, the book creates a faithful snapshot of toddler interactions that will make caregivers smile knowingly and teaches an important lesson without being preachy” – Kirkus Reviews
“A book that can be used both at home and in a toddler classroom!” – Youth Services Book Review
