About This Book

Reach for this book when your preschooler is beginning to branch out into social play and needs concrete examples of how to be a helpful friend or sibling. It is especially useful during those 'me-centric' developmental phases where a child needs a gentle nudge toward seeing the needs of others. The story follows a young boy named Leo as he discovers that being kind is not just a rule to follow, but a choice that makes him feel good too. Through relatable, everyday scenarios, Leo models empathy by sharing toys, helping with chores, and comforting friends. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to move beyond simply saying 'be nice' and instead want to show their child the internal reward of compassion. The language is simple and supportive, making it a perfect bedtime or circle-time read for children aged 3 to 5.

Sensitive Topics

The book is entirely secular and grounded in realistic, everyday social navigation. It does not deal with heavy trauma; rather, it focuses on minor social friction and the 'big feelings' of early childhood. The resolution is consistently hopeful and empowering.
