MINE!

When I was little, every night, my mom or dad would read me bed time stories. One of our favorites was "MINE" by Hiawyn Oram and Mary Rees, who does the adorable illustrations.

"MINE" is about a little girl who has a hard time sharing.. and eventually gets what she deserves! It's absolutely hilarious and one that holds a special place in my heart. Not only does this book promote sharing for all ages, but it shows that every choice has a consequence. 

"MINE" is perfect for bedtime, in a classroom to help students with sharing, or even for beginning readers to read themselves. I've read it to many a child over my time working with them in different capacities and every time they are laughing at the crazy antics the two friends in this story come up with.

The ending is priceless... but you will just have to read it to find out why. As I was researching the prices, I found it very difficult to fine this book. HINT: if you type in 'MINE by Hiawyn Oram' you will find it easier. It must be out of print (which is beyond tragic), because Barnes and Noble is out of stock, but Amazon has it for about $7 used paperback. If you can't wait for it to come by mail (which would be me...) see if your local library has it. 

This book is the perfect addition to your home library! Adults and children alike will fall in love with "MINE".

Now, go and READ!!
