Reach for this book when your child is dealing with a playground braggart or a relative who turns every holiday into a cutthroat competition. It is an ideal choice for the elementary schooler who feels demoralized by a 'sore winner' and needs to see that their frustration is valid and shared by others. The story follows Gilbert the opossum as he navigates an Easter egg hunt with his overbearing Cousin Wally, who insists on being first at everything. Through humor and relatable animal characters, the book explores the tension between wanting to win and wanting to have fun. It is perfectly pitched for ages 4 to 8, providing a safe space to discuss fairness, sportsmanship, and how to stand up for oneself without losing your own holiday spirit.
