Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the concept of reciprocity or needs to understand that friendship requires a fair exchange of effort and rewards. It is the perfect choice for the child who tends to take without giving back, or for the child who feels taken advantage of by a peer and needs a model for setting boundaries. Set against the vibrant backdrop of the African savanna, the story follows a Honeyguide bird and a Honey Badger who usually work together to find honey. When the greedy badger refuses to share his prize, the bird leads him on a wild chase that culminates in a startling lesson about consequences. Jan Brett's signature detailed illustrations provide a rich, immersive experience for children ages 4 to 8. It is a visually stunning way to discuss how our actions impact our friendships and why being a 'greedy friend' eventually leads to trouble.
