So cute and so important!

What a great children’s book! The lessons of kindness and patience are so important to teach kids these days. I know sharing is supposed to be taught and this cutely narrated book covers it beautifully. I think any child would love listening to this book. I highly recommend it for the child in your life!

Fun little book! :-)

I enjoyed listening to this fun little book, the first day of school, with Koko and her teacher. What a nice way to introduce little kids to our faith. I can't wait to play this book for my little girl. I encourage you to get this book.

Other than the perfect narrator, the book itself is fantastic!

Such a cute little book filled with entertainment and valuable lessons that our young ones will gain a positive influence from when they listen.

Kids still like books

I put on audible books for my niece (4) and nephew (5). Even with their devices, they still like time away from screens and traditional kids books being read to them, as they can't read yet. So when I'm working I pop on an audiobook. This one stresses the importance of patience.

Awesome Audibook!

The performance of the storytelling takes you into the story, I thought I was in it. I like the cover with the Koala too. I liked the story about the love, kindness and value that the book brings to our children going to school. I made it as a present for my niece.

I recommend it for parents who have a 3-8 year old child. Thanks to the author for sharing his values.

I found a germ!

I have been scratching my head about how to teach the fruits of the Spirit to my children. This book make it so simple, so easy and fun to teach them in a way they will understand. Also the length of the book is perfect for them! Well done to the autor!

Wonderful messages and illustrations

This book has made it very easy to chat about manners and kindness with children. The cadence of the rhyming means that it’s easy for my children to recite back. Having audible for the car means that they have been able to follow along in their books. Very sweet.
