Publisher's Synopsis
Social awareness is crucial for a child's development. Empathy helps children form and nurture lasting relationships. Children who develop empathy tend to build stronger, more enduring friendships.
Frances is a young boy, around 7 years old, who encounters unusual behavior from his parents one day. He later discovers that his parents, too, have their own worries and fears.
Young children are naturally self-involved, as their world has often revolved around their own needs and experiences. It's important for them to understand that their parents, too, can have difficult days. This awareness allows them to look beyond their own perspective and begin developing essential social skills.
