Editorial Reviews

Review

“More than just a good read, this board book is the ideal traveling companion for what to expect when heading out the door with little ones.”—Pamela Brill, TalkingWalnut.com



This colorful board book takes youngsters through the steps of going on errands. Busy fabric collage and strong black lines make vivid images of a mother and two small children. On the first page Mom asks: “What comes before GO?” The children answer: “We know…Get ready! Get set!” They then “Get ready, get set…Go potty first.” They get their coats and a snack, and buckle car seats. Their first stop is a grocery store. From the cart the little boy reaches for “sugar snacks” and “cookie wookies.” Uh-oh, the answer is no.” His older sister calms him with deep breaths. “If you’re sad or mad, take deep breaths. Ready, set? B-r-e-a-t-h-e in and out and in again. That’s how you calm down.” She helpfully hands Mom a bag of oranges. The siblings walk to a library and then go home to play. The final spread provides “‘On-the-Go’ Tips for Parents & Caregivers” such as “keep to a schedule” and “plan for some fun.” This book would be a useful conversation starter for young families needing to help their children with similar tasks.—School Library Journal

    As an illustrator, my focus has been working on books that build social and emotional skills, creating artwork for all kinds of transitions, challenges and successes. I'm always looking for new ways to reflect the rich variety around us, so we have images to take back to examine in our inner world. I liked the idea of producing new ways to connect with ourselves and others.

    Over the past 20 years, I've designed hundreds of book covers and illustrated 42 picture books for young children. I believe picture books both encourage curiosity and integrate art into everyday life.

5.0 out of 5 stars You child can be a "super helper" too!
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2013

I love this whole series of books, my toddler really seems to learn from books. He looks at the drawings of children in these books and they become role models. It is easier for me to guide his behavior if I have a clear example of other children behaving in that certain way. This particular book has helped us get out the door a little faster-- and it gives me language to use to encourage him-- like can you be a "super helper" and get your shoes on!

This whole series of books are fantastic. We are foster parents and they are the same ones that our toddlers' therapist uses with them. I love that we can have a set to reinforce what she's teaching them in the way they are familiar with!

Love this book. My 20 month old copies some of the things in it and asks to read it all the time. It has short phrases/sentences on each page and wonderful illustrations which keeps her short attention span. The general ideas are fabulous and I know this will be a great book/reminder for my daughter for years to come. Highly recommended.
