Engaging Picture Book Helps 3- to 6-Year-Olds Learn About Jealousy and Contentment

· Pippa loves to be the center of attention but she learns how to share the spotlight
· Includes conversation starters to help parents and young children personalize what's being learned


Pippa is a pup who loves being the center of attention. She's used to parties and presents and parades where she's the one in the spotlight. But when she finds out she's going to be a big sister, everything changes. Everyone wants to talk about the new baby and nobody cares about Pippa anymore! And that makes Pippa jealous, angry, and afraid. What if her parents love the new baby more than they love her? What Pippa comes to learn is that love is the answer--not by measuring the love others feel for her but by experiencing the great love she comes to feel for her new little sister. This engaging book helps kids move past the jealousy of younger siblings to the fun being an older sibling can be.

From veteran counselors and bestselling authors Sissy Goff and David Thomas, The Daystar Dogs series follows Pippa and her furry friends at the little yellow house in Nashville. As the puppies, and the kids they help, navigate hard situations, children will discover how to regulate emotions, develop necessary social skills, and discover the difference each puppy--and child--can make. Heartwarming and helpful, these books speak to the heart of what your child needs emotionally, socially, and spiritually today.
