Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the difference between following the letter of the law and the spirit of the law, especially regarding classroom rewards or social recognition. It is a perfect choice for parents of early elementary students who are highly competitive or who may prioritize winning a prize over the feelings of those around them. This story follows six year old Ava Lin as she navigates a kindness ticket system in her first grade classroom. While Ava's goal of winning a narwhal eraser is relatable, her single-minded focus leads her to treat kindness as a transaction rather than a genuine connection. The story explores themes of honesty, social awareness, and the importance of an authentic apology when we hurt those we love. With its blend of traditional text and graphic novel panels, it is an accessible and humorous way to talk about the messy reality of being a good friend.
