Editorial Reviews

Review

I have been teaching for 7 years and I have never seen such an amazing response to a book. Students are begging to read it over and over again. I loved the ability to make choices and talk about the outcomes. I loved how sometimes Danny's brother egged him on and we could talk about not having control over someone else and only having control over how you respond. I loved that when Danny asked for a snack he didn't get chocolate and we could talk about "getting what we want" versus "making a good choice." I also love the forgiveness from Danny's parents when he has a bad day and the encouragement to make the next day better. I love this book! --Kirsten Leigh, Elementary Teacher

This book empowers kids to make positive choices while showing them the natural consequences of negative choices. It's a great book for teaching the pillars of character and also a wonderful resource for teaching growth mindset. It's a book that you will use over and over... I highly encourage you to add it to your bookshelves. --
Marida Salinas, Elementary School Counselor

This book is a perfect fit for anyone trying to teach kids about responsibility and about the power of their choices. The kids are able to clearly see how their choices influence the type of day that they have. I highly recommend this book to every parent, teacher, and principal! --
Karyl Strader, Elementary School Principal

An Exciting Way to Teach Social Skills
I remember reading and enjoying "Choose Your Own Adventure" stories as a kid. While those were fun fantasy stories, I love that this book focuses on situations that young children can relate to and helps them to see the consequences of different choices.The book attempts to show the benefits of sharing, taking turns, being kind and following household rules and treating parents with respect. Some of the choices include: Eat off a non-preferred plate or yell about not getting the plate you want, Wait to play with a game or grab it away, Knock down a toy or try to get along, Eat a treat quickly or share with a sibling that dropped theirs, Ask Mom for a snack or sneak chocolate, Tell somebody that they aren't being nice or stomp their foot, Yell at Mom about not having new shoes or compliment brother's new shoes, Help a girl who fell or yell at her for accidentally spilling your lemonade, Refuse to get ready in protest or get ready to go to the park, Clean up or refuse to clean up, and push sibling or play together.My four-year-old son really enjoys this book. There are clearcut good and bad choices, and he is easily able to identify the good choices. However, these same choices can be difficult for young children to make in the moment. He likes making different choices to see what happens, and the story offers a lot of opportunity for discussion. I ask my son if he thinks he is making a good or bad decision, and we talk about the outcome of the different social situations.Maybe because he's a bit younger, my son's favorite story involves getting ice cream at park and playing soccer rather than making all good choices and having a lemonade stand and earning money for a skateboard. But, I think that the story offers a realistic perspective in that some minor bad behavior at this age can be expected and doesn't have to ruin your day if you make better decisions, but when you let a bad decision lead to more bad decisions, there will be more consequences.In my opinion, the book is worth the price, but I do hope they come out with a less expensive and a bit smaller paperback version eventually. The story format is a lot of fun for kids, and the illustrations are beautiful and really detailed.Update: I purchased a copy for my son's preschool, and the teacher loved it. My son's first grade teacher also read Danny stories to his virtual class, and they seemed to be a hit. I think these books are great teaching tools. My son still likes this book at 7 years old and also enjoys "What Should Danny Do?: School Day" and "What Should Danny Do?: On Vacation."My son ripped a page when he first got the book, because he was excited with the page turning. But I have to say that overall this book has hed up very well, and the binding is still secure.I added some photos to show how the navigation in the book works. It is pretty easy to follow, but page 20 has three different pages to go back to which may be a bit confusing. Page 68 is the last page of the book and directs to page 20 without needing to make a choice. When you make a good choice on page 33, you are directed to page 68 and then to 20. So to arrive at a different ending, you would make a bad choice on page 33. The other pages listed to go back to have choices that go directly to page 20.Thanks for reading.

My great nephew loves me reading this book to him. Loves the illustrations as well as a space to add his name on the inside front cover. Love the name of the character (Danny) as he portrayed his favorite activities that he likes to do. Great start to character building for kids as they explore their passions.

I purchased this book to help my elementary students understand that choices have consequences. It was fun reading it, allowing them to choose, and then rereading it as they made a different choice. We then talked about the consequences of choices, and they were utterly engaged in the discussion, and I could see them making connections. It was powerful. Thank you!

This book is a little confusing, but overall, it is an okay book. The interactive nature of the book, where the reader gets to choose Danny's actions, is a unique and engaging concept. However, the storyline can be a bit convoluted and hard to follow in some parts. It may not be perfect, but it is still worth a read for its interactive format and moral teachings.

This book is great for social-emotional learning, especially for those with siblings. I teach at a behavioral special education school and there are wonderful examples of various types of conflict that come up every day in my classroom (though with classmates, not siblings). The format is fun, sort of like the Goose Bump books where the reader(s) can select what comes next. THANKS!

Great way to teach children the rewards & consequences of their choices. Also, provides a strong character building aspect in a world that often neglects this area of growth. Highly recommend.
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024
I love how it shows the outcome of different actions. I ask my 4 year old grandson which outcome does he want to see & it teaches him how to make better choices. This is something that he has been working hard on. He's very active & doesn't always make the right choice. After talking to him about it, he comes home everyday telling us he made good choices at school.

My son (3) is obsessed with this book. We read it multiple times a day. Pity we always have Danny's Worst Day 🤣😭 As long as he is having fun, I guess.

I do think it is working towards him being more reflective of his behaviour and choices. At the very least it acts a reference for discussion when he is acting out. Great little book.
