5.0 out of 5 stars Realistic--No one Shares All the Time
How many times have you said, "No, you can't play with that? It's Mommy's." No one wants to share everything all the time, not even adults. Some things are just too special for us. This book helps a child learn another solution when he is not ready to share a favorite toy. Sharing is a very sophisticated concept, especially to a child who is always expected to share...

1.0 out of 5 stars I won't be sharing this book with the kiddos....
What a horrible lesson in sharing. This book only teaches that it is okay to be selfish. I was shocked when I read this to the end, thankfully not to my little ones, and was sad to see it did not redeem itself. Definitely not a story about sharing...but rather a lesson in being self centered.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sharing between siblings, September 17, 2000
This review is from: The Big Brown Box (Hardcover)
Marisabina Russo has shown a way that young siblings can share. The story also shows that parents can only do so much in the developmental process of sharing. I wished that I had had this story to learn from and share with my boys when they were these ages and going through the sharing stage.
