What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
This book contains no sensitive topics. The approach is entirely secular, direct, and educational. It focuses exclusively on the positive social-emotional skill of teamwork in a safe, school-like context. All challenges presented (e.g., disagreements about project direction) are low-stakes and resolved constructively and quickly.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a 7 to 9-year-old who is logically-minded but socially developing. This could be a child who gets frustrated in group projects because they want to control the outcome, or a quieter child who has great ideas but is afraid to speak up. It's for the kid who loves learning facts and doing projects but needs a clear, practical guide on how to navigate the social parts.
