All you Mom's out there are going to be able to relate to this short little e-book. For that matter so will all adults who have ever tried to keep a little one close by and fight to hold teor hands. So many things can happen to them and they are so brave and think just because they are getting older that they are perfectly alright and don't have to have their hands held when crossing streets or in big stores etc. I mean really--6 years old--they can take care of themselves--right? Well the little boy in this book finds out different and finally decides that it is perfectly okay for Mom to hold his hand! I have a strong feeling that when you read this to your little one they may just realize that they are still little and need to stay real close to Mom!

This is a great book! My three and five year old fight me on it very often. I keep telling them there are moments we need to hold hands for safety, but they think they are big enough. Sounds like this would help.
