Hands Off, Harry!

In Rosemary Wells's "Kindergators: Hands Off, Harry!", young readers meet Harry, an enthusiastic kindergator who has trouble respecting personal boundaries. His disruptive behavior, from interrupting Friendly Circle to causing minor accidents, upsets his classmates. The story beautifully illustrates how a community of peers, guided by their teacher, can collaboratively find a solution. Tina's ingenious idea using gym equipment provides a tangible way for Harry to grasp the concept of personal space. This book, part of a new series, uses Wells's signature humor and deep understanding of young children to address a common social challenge, making it perfect for classroom discussions or home reading about social skills and empathy.
