Trouble for Breakfast

Reach for this book when you are under the weather and want to reassure your child that while things might feel a little topsy-turvy when a parent is sick, love and teamwork keep the household running. It is a gentle, humorous way to validate a child's desire to help and to ease any anxiety they may feel about a caregiver's temporary illness. The story follows the young Rabbit children and their friends as they attempt to make a get-well breakfast for their mother. While their culinary efforts result in a messy kitchen and some unconventional cooking methods, the book celebrates their empathy and initiative. It is a perfect choice for children aged 3 to 7, modeling how family members can support one another with kindness, even when the execution is far from perfect.
