With eight tentacles and loads of energy, Opal is the first to volunteer for any project or opportunity. And when she doesn't volunteer, her friends are sure to ask! Opal soon finds herself spending all her daytime hours scheduled, and those hours start to creep into night, too. Her energy drains, and she starts forgetting important responsibilities. Even worse, with her time fully accounted for, the fun things Opal used to enjoy start to feel like chores. What can she do? With help from her mom, Opal learns about a self-care acronym: RESET! Will the RESET reminders, covering everything from rest, to saying no, to taking charge of your own time, help Opal get back on track so she can prioritize the important things, and find joy in her day again? Written for children ages 4 to 10, this fun story includes tips for parents and educators.

She's proud to be the school's biggest tattler, always slithering up to the teacher to rat out anyone who makes a mistake or acts a little mischievous. One minute she's outing Opal the Octopus for doodling, and the next minute she's calling out Casey the Cow for blowing bubbles. Is Diamond just a snake in the grass who can't be trusted? The class busybody who likes getting her classmates into trouble? Or does she tattle because she thinks it's the only right thing to do? Diamond Rattle Loves to Tattle is a cutely illustrated tale about figuring out when the right thing to do means telling an adult and when the best thing to do is figuring it out on your own. A great lesson for young readers in grades K-5.
