Beskrivning

From two Theodor Seuss Geisel Award–winning creators comes a funny and handy guide that explains just how (and how not!) to say “I’m sorry.”Wouldn’t the world be a better place if everyone knew how to apologise? Luckily, this humorous guidebook is full of practical tips about when, why, and how to say you’re sorry. From a porcupine who accidentally popped his friend’s balloon to a snail who was running so fast he stepped on a sloth’s toes, hilarious examples and sweet illustrations abound. For both listeners who are just learning and older readers who need a refresher, this book will come as a welcome reminder that even though apologising can be hard, it doesn’t have to be complicated.

Recensioner i media

“Everyone makes mistakes,” opens this guide to accountability. . .In Wohnoutka’s light gouache illustrations, the many full-bleed spreads and careful use of white space keep the tone friendly and focused. . .The perfect balance of humor and gravity delivers the message in an appealing way, and even the most outlandish scenarios are accessible. . .Children and adults alike can see themselves in both the aggrieved party and the wrongdoer, all presented with understanding and compassion. Equally useful as a lesson on social-emotional dynamics and as a story, this book has a place on every shelf. A necessary and entertaining approach to conflict resolution.
