About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when they notice their child is struggling to share, consistently taking the largest portion, or hoarding toys during playdates. It addresses the natural but difficult impulse to want everything for oneself and provides a clear framework for understanding what it means to take a fair share. By explaining the consequences of greed, specifically how it makes others feel and how it damages friendships, the book helps children transition from self-centered thinking to empathetic social awareness. Designed for children ages 4 to 8, this guide uses direct language and relatable scenarios to define greed as a behavior rather than a permanent personality trait. It emphasizes accountability and provides actionable steps for making amends when a child has been unfair. Parents will appreciate the book's logical approach to social manners, making it a helpful tool for teaching the foundational values of justice, kindness, and community cooperation.
