Pookins Gets Her Way

A parent might reach for this book after a day filled with tantrums and demands for 'my way!'. It's for the child who struggles with compromise, sharing, and understanding that getting everything you want isn't the key to happiness. The story follows Pookins, a little girl who always gets her way by screaming until she meets a gnome who grants her every wish. The wishes quickly spiral into hilarious, unhappy chaos. Through this magical exaggeration, the book explores themes of empathy, gratitude, and the negative consequences of selfishness. It's a perfect, humorous cautionary tale for children ages 3 to 7, using fantasy to teach a gentle lesson without feeling preachy.
