Behavior Matters Series
Delightful and well thought out story by a highly qualified author that illustrates why its important to understand or control certain behaviours that some young children struggle with at times. Also easy to follow with some extra discussion - my daughter really responded to these books and her teacher even borrowed the set for class story time too.

A Fun Lesson in Listening!
This adorable monkey story is the perfect antidote for little ones who forget to listen. With silly mix-ups, and a sweet message, it shows how paying attention can save the day. Kids laugh, learn, and maybe even start using their “listening ears” a little more!

Lovely Behavioural Book for Lively Tots
This was the second in the series purchased for my grandson who was having trouble paying attention and listening to instructions. He loved this book and liked to have it read to him several times over at bedtime. I only have to say the word "monkey" and he immediately sits up and listens. It really works. Would recommend.
