I Want It Now!: Helping Children Cope with Frustration and Disappointment

Summary: Helps parents explain important things in life to children
Review: Books that deal with real-life issues are among my favorites -- especially books that deal with a child's frustration over not getting what they want when they want it! What parent hasn't experienced this situation?

The book, "I Want It Now!" tells the story of a boy who dreams of getting a new bicycle, but becomes angry and disappointed when his parents cannot afford one. This story shows the importance of family and being together.

MyParenTime.com recommends this book -- the illustrations are colorful and childlike, and the rhyming phrases define an important moral. For me, the story was a little long, but it discusses a situation that I'm sure every parent and child has experienced at one time or another.
