About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is deeply attached to a worn, messy, or seemingly 'broken' comfort object and finds it difficult to explain why it is more valuable than a shiny new replacement. It is a brilliant resource for teaching children that love and shared history are what make things special, not their monetary value or perfection. Emily Brown and her rabbit, Stanley, are busy having imaginary adventures when a spoiled Queen decides she wants Stanley for herself. The Queen offers brand new, high-tech toys in exchange, but Emily remains steadfast. Through a blend of humor and heart, the story celebrates a child's agency and the power of imagination. It is perfect for ages 3-7, offering a reassuring message about loyalty and the integrity of one's personal world.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The Queen's behavior is essentially theft and entitlement, but it is handled with a secular, whimsical tone. The resolution is hopeful and educational rather than punitive.
