This was excellent. A really great book for any child. I kind of wish I could subtly give it to some adults. I especially liked the examples of insincere apologies versus a sincere one. Really great- and something I haven't seen elsewhere.

Teaches, but not didactic. Humorous, but also heartwarming. Definite addition for every elementary library.

I love books that emphasize the message "an apology is a start" and this is a great one. It provides scenarios and where an apology is necessary and then shows how the characters in the scenario can provide a good, sincere apology. Funny, educational and useful.

Someone recently told me that this book is good for everyone. That everyone needs a copy and that it's important. So I bought it for the high school library I work at. And they're not wrong! It's short, simple and includes good and bad examples. Can I hand this out to the world?

This is a funny book that is both entertaining and an actual primer on how to apologize. This book will be a hit with parents and will actually entertain kids, too. A winner.

This is a perfect book to use in a classroom setting (and maybe with some public figures as well). It breaks down what makes a good apology and how to act after you have messed up or hurt someone. It doesn't pretend like an apology will fix everything, but still shows why it is still an important part of the process. Definitely a great add to SEL lessons!
