About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling overwhelmed by a sibling, playmate, or guest who does not respect their personal space or boundaries. It is the perfect tool for helping a preschooler process the 'righteous indignation' that comes when someone else uses their toys or makes a mess in their room. Following the events of 'There's a Bear on My Chair', this story features a tiny, high-energy mouse who moves into Bear's house and proceeds to break every household rule. Through vibrant illustrations and bouncy rhyme, the book explores the frustration of losing control over one's environment. Parents will appreciate the way it validates a child's need for autonomy while offering a humorous, surprise ending that suggests hospitality might actually be rewarding. It is a lighthearted way to discuss manners, sharing, and the sometimes chaotic nature of friendship.
