Whatever kinds of grown-ups kids have in their lives, one thing is for sure: Life is better (and a whole lot simpler) when kids and grown-ups get along. And while grown-ups want kids to be respectful and thoughtful—toward everybody, not just grown-ups!—kids also deserve to be respected and treated thoughtfully. This book does that by showing kids how to build relationships, have difficult conversations, and know when to seek more trusting adults.

Key Features • Builds on the popularity and success of Free Spirit’s long-running Laugh & Learn® series, which has more than 1 million books in print • Humorous yet supportive tone and hilarious illustrations draw readers in and keep them engaged • Emphasizes how getting along with adults makes kids’ lives better, and that “getting along” doesn’t mean simply obeying

We’re All People Okay, scientists, let’s look at the facts: Grown-ups have thoughts. They even have feelings. They have hopes and fears, good days and bad days. And they all have their own unique personalities.

Eureka! The evidence is clear: In many ways, grown-ups are just like you.

by Lauren Starnes, Ed.D.

To work with young children is to constantly expect the unexpected. Tough questions are part of educators’ regular interactions with children and families. Based on children’s actual questions, this book is formatted to be immediately accessible with guidelines for having conversations with children—and their families—as well as guidance on how to approach specific issues. Topics relate to family (such as unemployment, divorce, and incarceration), to illness and death (of a pet, a child, or a relative), to social issues (such as racism and gender fluidity), to large-scale crises (including natural disasters, terror events, and community violence).

Key Features • Fully based in developmentally appropriate practice • Fills a need within education because competing books are either religious or topic-specific • Helps educators support young children in a way that honors the family’s preferred approach • Ready-to-use format makes it easy to turn to a specific topic and find clear guidance on how and why to respond to questions and concerns
