Some of my friends are pregnant and I'm determined to buy only (but also all of) the best board books and picture books for their home libraries. Also I'm counting these for my yearly reading challenge because it's that kind of year (aka, it's rough out here).
Authored by a licensed psychologist, Empathy is Your Superpower is about how to gain insight and caring into how others feel. It breaks down empathy and compassion into simple terms and uses lots of examples to help little kids figure out all the forms empathy can take and why it is important. There are also activities and discussion questions at the back of the book. Overall, I thought this was great.
