These books are fantastic for teaching social skills in a non threatening way to young children (3-7 year olds). All children can relate to the situations. At the back of each book there are a few additional pages full of wonderful discussion starters, games, circle time ideas, role plays and fun activities for parents and teachers to reinforce the skills. Social skills need to be taught. It is well worth the time because they are the foundation to academic learning. These can be used in Circle Times as a tool in creating a Caring Classroom. Children who struggle with challenging behaviours, Autism and Learning Disabilities will greatly benefit. It's like a social story. I work as a social-emotional behavioural consultant with young children and I'd highly recommend this entire series for every Preschool, Kindergarten and Grade 1 Class.

Excellent book

I have two children, a seven year old boy diagnosed with aspergers, and a four year old boy. I picked it up primarily for my older son.
There is something about the flow of ideas in this book which is very engaging. I found this myself and both of my sons were taken in by it too. The language is clear and logical and quite simply makes a lot of sense. I think this is an excellent book for children such as my older son who need the kind of reasoning used in the book to be layed out logically and explicitly for them.

Used for Whole Class Lesson as a School Psychologist

I used this book with a first grade class that was having difficulty applying problem solving techniques to their peer relationships. In the back of the book, there are questions to accompany all of the story pages. These were great to engage the kids the whole time that I was reading the story. To finish, we made bookmarks with the problem solving steps from the book.

This is a great book to teach children about getting along & nowadays teaching children to get along is so important. I purchased the book as a gift & the truth is I really bought this book hoping the parent's reading the book might learn something; it is hard to teach something you don't know yourself.
