About This Book
Reach for this book when you notice your child struggling to navigate social boundaries or using their size and energy to dominate playtime. It is an essential tool for those moments when 'playing tough' goes too far and leaves other children feeling excluded or intimidated. The story follows Rex, a large dinosaur who loves to roar and stomp, but soon finds that his bossy behavior leaves him playing all alone. Through Rex's journey, children learn that true friendship is built on kindness and shared fun rather than power. The book gently models how to recognize the impact of one's actions on others and, importantly, how to make a sincere apology to mend a friendship. It provides a safe, non-judgmental space to discuss behavior, making it a perfect choice for parents of 5 to 7 year olds who are refining their social skills in school or on the playground.
