Reach for this book when your child has had a hard day of making mistakes, breaking rules, or struggling with big impulses that led to a 'time out' or a scolding. It is an essential tool for repair after moments of discipline, helping children understand that your love is constant and unconditional, even when their behavior is less than perfect. The story follows Plum, a lovable and exuberant dog who gets carried away by all the things she loves, leading to some messy mishaps and a brief period of being 'in disgrace.' Through Plum's experience, children aged 2 to 6 learn to navigate the heavy feelings of shame and the relief of sincere apology. It is a comforting, humorous choice for parents who want to model healthy forgiveness and reinforce the idea that a bad choice does not make them a bad person. The gentle resolution provides a safe space to discuss how we can make things right when we mess up.
