Horn Book (Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 CDT 2015)

These didactic stories take on common childhood experiences: spending a day in preschool, getting upset about a problem, having a snack-time conversation, and feeling left out of play. The texts are intended to model behavior and language to help children and their caregivers navigate small dramas. An appended note to adults spells it all out. Mediocre illustrations feature a blandly diverse cast.

Playing at the water table is fun. But Erik thinks getting splashed is not fun. When his sleeve gets wet, Erik gets sad, and he can't imagine ever being happy again. Then, with a classmate by his side, Erik becomes absorbed by a new idea: making the water disappear. As it does, Erik discovers his sadness has vanished and happiness has reappeared, like magic. Airdah-taroo! The book contains a page of information to help adults connect the story to children's experiences.
