Description

Amanda’s not good at sharing, and is mean to her friend, Ellie. But with the help of a baby doll, a stuffed teddy bear, and a forgiving guest, one little girl finds out what it really means to be a friend.

Watching a couple of children playing one day, I realized that one of them needed to learn how to share. How could I make little ones think about sharing without turning it into a "lesson"? That's how Mine! came to be.

This is a charming story in rhyme about Amanda, a little girl who has trouble sharing. Naturally any parent, caretaker, or teacher has run into this problem many times. This tale will resonate with young children who either experience this problem or see it in their playmates. The artwork is bold and daring with its wide-eyed characters. Delia Latham, whose "chosen genre is that of inspirational romance," has chosen to share her take on sharing and friendship ... gleaned from the experience of her own wide-eyed moppets. This story would be an excellent choice to read and discuss during circle or story time in the classroom or homeschool setting.
