Wonderful book that reinforces the importance of self-esteem

Therapist Cornelia Maude Spelman has written a wonderful series of books for children, teaching them how to cope with various emotions. In "When I Feel Good About Myself", the focus is on developing self-esteem, as experienced by a young guinea pig. Written as a story, the young guinea pig goes through various situations that make her feel good about herself. There is a brief note to parents by the author at the beginning of the book that explains how it is important to help children feel good about themselves. The illustrations are vibrant and colorful and help make the story real for children.Highly recommended series of books for toddlers and up!

When I feel good about myself

It is a wonderfull book for the kids. My two daughters loved it.

Good book for a child perfectionist

My five year old daughter was having a problem with trying to be a perfectionist. It was making her extremely anxious. This book sends the right message that nobody has to be perfect. As soon as I read this book to her, she loved it and has wanted to take it to bed with her every night. Whenever she wants to read to herself, I see her grab this book. It's hard to find a book for a preschooler that sends this message so that kids can understand it. I think this book would also be good for preschool aged child that does not have a good self-image.
