Do your words and actions help or hurt? In this humorous guide to good behavior, Ollie Octopus, Bucky Beaver, and their friends help point the way to good behavior. For example, when Howie Hogg is... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought this for my 6 year old. It is a series of short paragraphs with a multiple choice section at the end of each one. The stories are cute and funny, and she really got into thinking about the "right thing to do". Each short story has a different moral-example-saying sorry, telling the truth, being responsible, not following the crowd etc..She also enjoyed looking for the hidden answer in the picture for each short story. A great book-with good examples on doing the right thing.

I have loved this and It's a Spoon Not a Shovel since I introduced both to my children many years ago. I use them in my child care center as a way to introduce manners to all age groups.
The fun doesn't stop with the answer

As a question and answer type book, your child will soon remember where to locate the correct answer in each picture. However, that's when you can move to the next fun phase of the book. Hidden in each of the illustrations you're sure to find dinosaurs, bumblebees, cats, and all sort of recognizable creatures. The authors have imaginatively hidden these animals using subtle shading and coloration, they're really hard to pick out! It's even more rewarding when you're finding them all for the 25th time, and suddenly come across one you've never seen before. Your child will get so much out of exploring these pictures, this book is really worth getting.
fun for both kids and parents

My six year old loves this book and I like it because it shows common things kids might do (but done by cute animals--lying, being nice to others, cheating, etc.) with funny multiple choices and hidden letters in the pictures. Lots of good puns. (Pig plays at grandma's, before he leaves he should a. pick up toys, b. tweeze his snout hairs or c. tell grandma she lives in a pigsty.) Cute pictures too.
