Ella's Toys by Karen Kilpatrick

Ella’s Toys:

Ella’s toys are beyond compare, but playtime’s more fun when she learns to share! Flaunting her toys but keeping them to herself is not much fun after the other kids lose interest. Left alone, Ella decides to make it up to her friends. Children will learn an important lesson in this endearing book about generosity, friendship, and the benefits of giving. Written in rhythmic and memorable rhyme, this is a fun book to either read aloud or perfect for early readers. Ella's Toys was designed to encourage early literacy, enhance social and emotional development, and promote character growth. Winner of Parent Tested Parent Approved Seal of Approval and Academics' Choice Smart Book Award.

Book Excerpt:

“I don’t care, I won’t share, not anytime, not anywhere.  This is mine; that’s mine too. All for me. None for you.”

“To join: Bring a toy and a hug – welcome to the Sharing Toy Club!”

Ella's Toys is a fun book to help children learn the importance of sharing.  The pages are made with a thin lightweight cardstock over paper that preschoolers and younger could tear.  The illustrations are big, bold and colorful.
