An Excellent Book for a Toddler to Grow Up With

This children's book by Joy Berry is short, to the point and has excellent comic book type illustrations that will catch any toddler's eye. The book opens with little blonde and very selfish Katie not wanting to share her toys with red-headed Sam. Your toddler will learn right off the bat that other children do not like playing with selfish kids, because selfish kids care more about themselves than they do others. You'll be asking your toddler as you read along how he or she feels and thinks about selfish children. Do they feel left out? Do they feel angry? Your toddler will get the picture pretty fast that selfish is just not the way to be. And to reinforce the don't be selfish theme, the second half of the books shows Sam playing with his new friend, Tami. Unlike Katie, Sam is not selfish and he and Tami enjoy themselves playing while Katie is obviously left out, because nobody like a selfish little girl, or boy. Ms. Berry's books are all delightful and it's a puzzle to me why they are so hard to get. One would think that this is the kind of book every toddler should grow up with. I'm glad I have them and my son Devon is too.
