No Biting!

Reach for this book when your toddler is navigating the common but challenging developmental phase of physical acting out. It is an essential tool for parents who have recently witnessed a bite, hit, or push and want to guide their child toward prosocial behaviors without using shame. The book uses an interactive lift-the-flap format to show toddlers that while it is okay to feel big things, there are better ways to express them. Karen Katz uses her signature bright, inclusive illustrations to model healthy alternatives to aggressive impulses. By focusing on kindness and personal boundaries, the book helps toddlers understand that their hands and teeth are for playing and eating, not for hurting others. It is perfectly calibrated for the 0-3 age range, offering a gentle, repetitive structure that reinforces positive habits and social-emotional growth.
