Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the 'it's mine!' phase or having difficulty navigating social boundaries during playdates. This story features a loud, colorful dinosaur who believes every toy at school belongs solely to him, only to realize that holding onto things too tightly eventually means having no one to play with. It provides a gentle mirror for children to see how possessive behavior impacts their friends' feelings without being overly preachy. Through the Mine-o-saur's journey, the book explores themes of loneliness and the joy of collaboration. It is perfectly suited for preschoolers and early elementary students who are still mastering the art of sharing. Parents will appreciate how the story validates the impulse to want things while clearly showing that true fun happens when we include others.
