Reach for this book when your child has had a bad day and snapped at someone, or when they offer a hollow, forced sorry just to get out of trouble. Ari is having a very bad day and decides to take her frustration out on an innocent snail. When she offers a perfunctory apology, the snail refuses to accept it, launching a hilarious chase where the snail and her friends appear everywhere demanding a genuine repair. It is a brilliant tool for teaching the difference between saying the words and feeling the empathy. Perfect for children ages 4 to 8, this story validates that it is okay to be angry, but it also models how to take responsibility for our actions without the heavy-handedness of a lecture. Parents will love how the absurdist humor breaks the tension around the sensitive topic of behavioral mistakes.
