John and Boogs and The Sharing Snail

By Myra Eberwine

In John and Boogs Meet the Sharing Snail, Boogs has a brand-new favorite toy, and he does not want to share it. Not with John. Not with anyone. Holding on tight feels easier than letting go, especially when you are not ready.

But when his beloved plushie suddenly runs off into the mysterious Forest of Forgotten Toys, Boogs and John must chase after it. Deep in the forest, they discover a quiet place filled with lonely toys that were once loved but never shared.

There, they meet Sir Sheldon the Sharing Snail, a wise and gentle guide who shows Boogs that sharing is not about being forced to give something away. It is about being ready, making a kind choice, and discovering that sometimes joy grows when we decide to let someone in.

As Boogs begins to see things differently, he learns that sharing can happen in its own time and that choosing to share can help friendships grow stronger.

This warm and imaginative picture book helps young readers understand the value of taking turns, respecting feelings, and learning that sharing is a choice that feels best when it comes from the heart. With playful storytelling and meaningful lessons, it is perfect for toddlers, preschoolers, and early learners developing social emotional skills.

Ideal for ages 3 to 7, John and Boogs Meet the Sharing Snail is a thoughtful addition to any home, classroom, or therapy setting.
