Parents For Sale by Dr. Nicole Audet is a great book for grade school children. It is a fantasy story about two siblings who have not been taking care of their dog, Pistachio. Their parents are talking about selling the dog. Of course the kids are not happy about that at all. They realize that they could solve this problem with the only logical solution- Sell their parents instead!
Didn't we all want to sell our parents at least once when we were kids? How much fun would this sound to them at first
They make signs and put them out and wait for a buyer, Everything was going well, they even found a buyer!
A Fairy Orphan! But, oh, looks can be deceiving! She was really a witch who wants to turn her parents into stew! What have they done to their parents? Now they have to find a way to get their parents back.
It's a great story that helps kids work through situations where they might get angry in a healthy manner. They learn that even if you get mad at someone, you would not want them gone forever. They use their creativity to work through the mess they have made and solve the problem. Also, that sometimes if we try to take the easy way out, we create a much bigger mess to deal with.
I would love to buy this for my niece! She is not the easiest to deal with when she does not get her way. It would maybe help her think through her actions a little more clearly.
This book is awesome and would be super fun to read as a child! it is sure to be a childhood favorite.
