You know what else? She's not afraid to tell them. Being bossy makes her feel safe and smart two of her favorite things.

It's the first in a series of story books that empowers children to be creative participants in what they're reading (or what's being read to them).</span></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>PSSST!</strong><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> Person buying the book: if you let a child draw inside these lush pages against Claudette's demands it becomes a sweet snapshot of their interests and abilities. If you own the digital version or your pages are already full of gorgeous drawings or like Claudette you have control issues (it's okay! we're all a work in progress) your little reader can draw on paper instead. In any case have markers colored pencils or crayons at the ready as this book is meant to be a one-of-a kind interactive giggle-fest centered on compassion and play.</span></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)><em>**Leave My Book Alone! </em>makes a wonderful gift especially when paired with a fresh new box of crayons.**</strong></p>
