Why did we select this book?
Raising Readers knows that this is a common time for children to have trouble sharing a family's love with a sibling, allowing a family member to go to work, or sharing a friend with another at childcare. Raisin reflects those frustrations and opens up opportunities to talk to your child about loving her even when you cannot always be with her. Like Raisin, your child will start developing strategies to "boost" herself up.
