As a mom, it is hard sometimes for a child to trust adults. Through reading this book Charlie and I have been able to discuss his feelings on “TRUST’ and who and who he should not trust. As to why he should or should not believe someone. We all know kids have no fear and no matter how much we stress to them to “not talk to STRANGERS” they still do it.
This morning Charlie and I are conducting a review for Howard B. Wigglebottom On Yes or No: A Fable About Trust. I am glad I was able to review Howard B. Wigglebottom On Yes or No: A Fable About Trust as it as it is A Fable About Trust.
Touching animals which don’t belong to us. As children do not “, FEAR” things like adults do. Since Charlie walks to school by himself sometimes, David and I have been stressing both of these items with Charlie. I have been watching, and I see him struggle with this, but he has been getting better about it. Which helps me TRUST” him more. Charlie tries new things such as walking to school by himself.
Once Charlie and I sat down, to read Howard B. Wigglebottom On Yes or No: A Fable About Trust and some of the things Charlie and me have been working on were able to address it the book. This book has shown Charlie I was teaching him the right things. I liked knowing what I have been teaching Charlie is in writing. In a paper, he can share with his friends who may be struggling with the things he was facing.
Also, it touches on kids who get kids in trouble “BULLYING” which Charlie is learning about in school as well. This book has reinforced so many things that I will always have it on hand to refer back through because it has taught Charlie and I a lot about what to do and not do.
I think Howard B. Wigglebottom On Yes or No: A Fable About Trust would make a lovely Gift not only to other children but adults as well. Since we all struggle with “TRUST” and “BULLYING.”
On the website for Howard B Wigglebottom, you will find songs and posters as well, which would make excellent Christmas Gifts as it is right around the corner. Although it doesn’t matter what time of year it is “READING” is something we should take the time to do with our children every day. So why not purchase books that teach lessons like Harry B Wigglebottom does.
You can use this educator endorsed book to start a discussion with 5-8-year-olds about whom to trust, its OK to say no and stranger danger. Book 12 of 15 in the award winning Howard B. Wigglebottom series. Complimentary song, poster and interactive questions at
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
