This is a great lesson book to use with children because it is normal for children at their age to not like sharing and be egocentric. This book shows children how the other person might feel when they don't share and it offers better options. This book is also good to start a discussion because children are very passionate about their toys. They could discuss sharing, fairness, emotions, what toys they like to play with, who they like to play with, etc. It is a simple and easygoing way to explain why sharing is important without lecturing or reprimanding them.
