About this title

From the Publisher:

Social and emotional competence is key to success in school and in life. Young children need to learn how to deal with their emotions, make positive choices, solve problems, resolve conflicts, resist impulsive behavior, form relationships, work cooperatively, and more. Launched in Spring 2003, our "Learning to Get Along™" series helps parents, teachers, childcare providers, and anyone else who cares about kids teach basic social and emotional skills. Written for ages 4–8, meant to be read aloud, each book focuses on a specific skill. Each includes a special section for adults. All are positive, practical, realistic, and sound—just what you’d expect from a Free Spirit series.
