朋友不喜歡吼叫

My son asks for this one every night now, and I don't mind at all—Little Lap's journey feels so genuine that it's sparked real conversations about how he treats his own classmates. The pacing is gentle but never boring, and the warmth of the story lands just as well on repeat reads.

My three-year-old asks for this every night now, which is a win. The way it shows Lap's social struggles without being preachy really clicks with her. I caught her trying to "roar nicely" at a friend at the playground last week.

The illustrations are really expressive and help tell the story, which my daughter picked up on immediately. I do wish the ending felt a little more resolved, but it’s sparked good conversations about how we act around others.
