OK series of books

Learning to Be a Good Friend: A Guidebook for Kids (Elf-Help Books for Kids) I was excited when I found this series of "getting along" books. They sounded perfect and seemed to deal with a wide range of childhood issues. My first complaint is that they each have one page about what god wants. No where was this religious plug mentioned in the information about the books. Each book makes good points and are fairly well written, but then some of the books go into too much detail about related problems. Maybe it's just me because I am reading to a 4 year old and the extra info just dilutes the main concept. If you are reading to an older child it might work better. Sometimes it mentions bad behaviors my boy hasn't thought of yet, and I have to skip over those parts. No sense planting ideas in his head! Otherwise they are not bad books, just not exactly what I need.

Cannot get enough of these!

I buy a lot of these series of books for my 7 year old. There is one for almost every emotion and many situations. Love books with a message especially if they have a good story line.
