Young children's lives are full of new experiences and these books help make them less scary. The simple conversational text and lively illustrations are carefully designed to encourage further dialogue between reader and child.

This book gets five stars because both of my daughters love this book. My oldest child is now in elementary school, but when she was was a toddler, she had me read it over and over again during lunch or dinner. Tonight, my youngest daughter (she is two years old) asked me to read it to her while she was finishing her meal. I'd just come home after work and a very frustrating commute, but it felt good to read a book that both of my girls love.
