The Book

Squirrel is playing with his small woodland friends and Bear arrives and asks to play too.  Bear is definitely much bigger and more awkward than the other little animals so will squirrel allow him in on the games they are playing? 

Squirrel says yes of course he can play too.  He is more than happy to include bear too.   They find an activity that they all can participate in together and what a lovely time was had by all. 

This heartwarming book highlights how to make new friends, how to practise kindness and how to be inclusive towards others who may be different from you.  

The Chicken Soup for the Soul Babies series imparts good values through heartwarming and humourous stories to help little ones put their best foot forward.

I love the adorable cartoonish kid-friendly illustrations and I highly recommend this particular book and the entire series.
