WAITING IS NOT EASY!
BY MO WILLEMS
Sometimes, our children want things instantly. They need to learn the value of waiting. In this story, children will be able to identify with Gerald who grows frustrated by the second because he has to wait. This is another great title by Mo Willems to show that there are some things in life that you can only enjoy if you wait.

Journey, Quest, Return
Aaron Becker
Have fun with your children as you look for clues to piece your own narratives in these beautifully illustrated wordless books. In this trilogy, the main character seeks her own adventure when her parents are too busy for her.

Hermit Crab
Eric Carle
It is an irony that a hermit crab sees the value of friendship and chooses instead to make many acquaintances. Do we sometimes excuse our children from certain tasks because it is not their nature to do them? Eric Carle's story challenges us to explore the possibility of denying our personalities and natural inclinations.
Suitable for ages 2-7

THE FOOLISH TORTOISE
Eric Carle
Do you sometimes feel exasperated that your child rejects your discipline? This is another great title from Eric Carle to show that sometimes restrictions are placed for our protection. We choose foolish living when we see protection as restriction and reject it. Help our children to see that our instructions are meant to protect them.
