Reach for In a Minute! when your preschooler is feeling overlooked or impatient while you tackle daily chores. It is the perfect story for those moments when the phrase 'not right now' leads to a meltdown, or when your child finally gets your attention only to decide they are no longer interested in playing. This gentle story follows Bartholomew the bear as he waits for George to finish the washing and the tidying. It beautifully captures the common friction between adult responsibilities and a child's urgent need for connection. Parents will appreciate how the book validates a child's frustration without making the adult the villain. It serves as a sweet mirror for the 'power struggles' of domestic life, ultimately modeling how to find a middle ground where both parties feel seen and valued. Ideal for ages 2 to 5, it is a comforting tool for teaching the ebb and flow of family time.
