this book wears a crown when it comes to stopping a tantrum before it occurs. after reading this book a couple of times, your toddler, when presented with not getting her own way, will say “sometimes you get what you want and sometimes you don’t” and carry on in a calm manner. this will happen precisely 1.724 times after which, it’s just a cute book with no effect on behavior. this is one of those book that sneaks in, as it is the supporting characters that are most reflective of my brown girl.
