About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is starting to notice how their neighborhood works or when you want to discuss the importance of honesty and realistic expectations. As Mama Bear campaigns for mayor of Bear Country, she faces the classic political dilemma: making big promises to win votes versus the reality of getting things done. It is an excellent tool for teaching children that leaders are people who serve the community, and that integrity matters more than winning. While the setting is whimsical, the emotional core focuses on accountability and the pressure to please everyone. It is perfectly suited for children ages 4 to 8, providing a gentle introduction to civic duty and the value of a hard day's work. Parents will appreciate how it humanizes leadership and models a healthy family supporting one another through a big challenge.
