The Budding Behaviours Pack includes:
1. The Dream Keepers – April Hartmann
Every wish has two guardians known as Dream Keepers: one in charge of Happy Thoughts, and one in charge of Hard Work. When a very special wish needs to reach a home all the way at the top of Challenge Mountain, can the Dream Keepers complete the journey? Or will they give up?
2. Mind Your Manners, Dinosaurs! - Danielle McLean & Gareth Williams
Follow along as each dinosaur gets ready for dinnertime and shows off their mealtime manners in a fun and accessible way. Ideal for introducing toddlers to manners and polite behaviour, including saying “please”, “thank you”, “excuse me” and more.
3. The Hare Who Wouldn't Share – Steve Small
Hare is proud of his turnip patch and doesn’t want to share it with anyone. When the rabbits move in nearby, they invite Hare for carrot soup but he’s much happier being alone. Still, when a huge boar comes to the woods in search of his next meal, Hare feels he should warn his neighbors. Can they find a way to help each other stay out of danger?
4. Noodle Conquers Comfy Mountain – Jonathan Graziano & Dan Tavis
On a quest to find this comfiest place, Noodle spots the holy grail: the soft, squishy top of the couch. It’s Comfy Mountain. But Comfy Mountain is high up out of Noodle’s reach. When he realizes that he won’t be able to conquer it on his own, Noodle must decide whether to forgo his independence for the comfiest, coziest spot he’s ever seen. Readers will delight in this new adventure from Noodle the pug and learn that, while it’s great to try things on your own, it’s also okay to ask for help when you need it.
