Description
It’s essential for children to learn valuable lessons like these and that they are accountable for their actions. The book has illustrated in a positive and easy manner what the consequences for bad behavior are and how important it is for children to behave in a respectful manner.
The young boy struggles with the evil twins who compete for his attention. The descriptive terms good and bad are difficult for young children to understand. Galvin goes through his day telling the reader about what he perceives to be good or bad. He understands that it is good to listen to your parents, be kind to friends and animals, practice good hygiene and eating habits. It seems bad to ignore chores, fight, lie, or be mean and cruel to others. But why is it so difficult to choose? Galvin decides he will do his best to make good choices.
This colorful picture book is playful and humorous even though its subject is serious. Elementary school-age children can see themselves in Galvin’s shoes and empathize with his struggles. The book includes discussion questions for parents or teachers to use to enhance the learning experience. Highly recommended for a family or classroom as a read-aloud choice.
