Reach for this book when your child is struggling with impulsive behavior or navigating the tricky transition from seeing others as obstacles to seeing them as friends. It is a perfect choice for the preschooler who is still learning that their first instinct, like grabbing a toy or being bossy, might not be the best way to build a relationship. In this charming story, a kitten named Max wants to catch a bird, but the bird convinces him that friends are better than snacks. Together, they embark on a humorous mission to teach the bird how to fly, discovering that helping someone else succeed is far more rewarding than following a predatory impulse. With its bold illustrations and gentle wit, it models empathy and the value of a shared goal for children aged 3 to 6.
