My son's reaction
My son is age seven. He was really ho-hum about this book. "It was okay mom". When I went to read it to him the next night "BUT MOM... we read that last night, do we have to read it again?" We'll be putting it into our "to be given as a gift box" as it really is a nice book, but the lad is not into it at all.
My reaction
If you have a youngster that struggles with making good decisions, this book is a good way to encourage dialogue between you and your child. This book is an aid to figure out why some decisions can be good, but really not good at the time. Why some decisions simply might not be good when you look at what your goal is. This book can help you make conversation with your child in a non-confrontational manner. It also overall is just a good story.
