Om It's Not My Fault!
The New York Times bestselling author of The Bad Seed and The Good Egg takes a lighthearted approach to how to respond to the all-too-common claim IT''S NOT MY FAULT!
Emotional literacy is embeded in this funny cautionary tale:
Why is your homework so messy?
It''s not my fault! I blame my pen.
Why can''t I read these test answers?
I blame my pen.
Why is your assignment so late?
Um...I blame my pen?
A boy steadfastly refuses to take responsibility for any of his mistakes. He just blames everything that goes wrong on his pen, his backpack, his comb, his pillow--whatever item happens to be at hand. For awhile, this approach works at home and at school. He''s positively convinced he has it all figured out until . . . all the inanimate objects rise up and revolt. What can he do when a talking pen and talking backpack decide to rebel?
#1 New York Times bestselling picture book author Jory John encourages kids to accept responsibility and delivers messages about emotional literacy while keeping the laughs coming in this fun-filled cautionary tale.
