About This Book
Jeanne Willis and Jarvis deliver a delightful picture book about a little rhino who believes he's the boss of everything, including a fruit-laden tree. When he refuses to share, he quickly learns that being in charge isn't as fun when you're all alone. This humorous and rhythmic story is perfect for children aged 4-7, addressing themes of sharing, bossiness, and the importance of listening to others. It offers a gentle, engaging way to discuss social dynamics and the benefits of cooperation with young readers.
When Rhino finds a tree bursting with fruit, he isn t about to share it with anyone after all, he s in charge around here! But it looks like things might be about to change.
