Lu won’t go with just anyone! Lu is waiting to be picked up after school. She stands on the sidewalk, all alone, and it starts to rain. Ms. Smith walks by, and offers to take her home. Ms. Smith lives in Lu’s neighborhood—but does Lu really know her? Lu asks herself, what’s her first name? Does she dye her hair red? What’s her dog’s name? And she says, “I don’t know you, so I won’t go with you! And besides, Mama said I should wait.” As other adults—all of whom Lu has met in some capacity before—offer to take her home, Lu continues to consider if she really knows them. One by one, she refuses to go with them. Until, finally, the person Mama said she should go home with shows up—though his appearance is a surprise to the reader! This sensitively narrated story illustrates how clear rules and arrangements can help protect and empower children during an especially vulnerable time of day. The ending includes a prompt for readers to create their own similar “safe” list, and a list of resources for parents.
"The idea of parents taking a break from or ending their relationship is scary and sad for children of all ages. If My Parents Are Divorced shows how different families can deal with a separation and which insecurities may arise in the minds of children."-- Page 4 of cover
The perfect read for children who are curious about where babies come from and how they grow. When Mama’s girlfriend, Lili, visited, I was surprised to see that Lili has a very round, rather big belly. “There’s a baby growing in there!” Mama explained. “Was I in your stomach, too?” I asked. “Of course!” Mama says. “And was your stomach as big as Lili’s?” Mama laughs. “I think my stomach was even bigger. You were a big baby when you were born . . . .” What could be more exciting than discussing where we come from and how we got here? Was I in Mama’s Stomach, Too? gives parents, grandparents, and caregivers the opportunity to speak with children about this important topic, allowing children who are curious about science and nature to learn the answers to their questions about sexual attraction, reproduction, pregnancy and birth, as well as gain knowledge about one of the most fascinating processes in life.
The perfect tool to teach children how to evaluate and manager their anger. I Can Control My Anger provides parents, grandparents, teachers, and caregivers the opportunity to speak with children about this important topic. Do you sometimes get angry? I do. Sometimes I have such rage, I want to yell at the top of my lungs or shout at someone else. Sometimes I even want to shred something or stomp on it. When I get angry, my heart beats faster than usual, I get hot, and my face turns as red as a tomato. Occasionally, I get cold and my hands shake when I am really frustrated and mad. We all get angry, and we all feel that anger in different ways. We may get hot or cold. We may want to yell at our parents or our friends, or we may want to pout and not talk to anyone. We may want to punch pillows or we may just want to cry. Sometimes we know why we’re angry, and sometimes we don’t. And that’s okay. This book sensitively teaches young readers about anger and shows them healthy ways to process and express their thoughts and emotions when they are mad.
