Reach for this book when your child is going through a 'know it all' phase or has become overly confident in their own expertise. It is a perfect tool for addressing the humbling experience of making a mistake when you were sure you were right. Nancy is a vibrant, fancy young girl who prides herself on her knowledge of the natural world, specifically identifying poison ivy. However, her overconfidence leads to a literal and metaphorical itch that teaches her the value of humility and careful observation. Appropriate for ages 4 to 7, this story models how to handle small failures with grace. Beyond the 'fancy' vocabulary lessons Jane O'Connor is known for, the book explores themes of responsibility and the consequences of one's actions. It is a gentle, humorous way to discuss why it is important to listen to adults and double-check our facts, especially when exploring the great outdoors.
