What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. This book is an exercise in pure, uncomplicated joy. Its purpose is to generate happiness, not to process difficult emotions.
Ideal Reader
A 2 to 4 year old who is feeling grumpy, shy, or just needs to get some wiggles out. It is perfect for a toddler who is non-verbal or pre-verbal, as the main form of participation is sound and action, not complex language. It is also excellent for a parent-child pair needing to reconnect through play after a frustrating moment, like a tantrum.
