This book really connected with a curious four-year-old who wanted to read it several times in a row. The rhyming questions and answers help children take in the information and see why certain habits and behaviors matter. It encourages kids to care for their bodies, their surroundings, and other people in ways that make sense to them. Overall it feels both heartwarming and practical.
