Tomorrow I'm in Charge!

  • Interest Level: Preschool - Grade 1
  • Reading Level: Grade 2

When Weasel comes home, he can hardly believe his eyes: Bear and Badger are playing. But Badger is Weasel’s friend!

Badger suggests the three friends play together. But Bear and Weasel can’t agree on anything: not football, not memory, not hide and seek.

Weasel never follows the rules. Bear always wants to be in charge.

Set in a charming outdoor forest house, this picture book is a brilliant battle of wills between friends. Readers will enjoy every twist and turn of this very funny argument about a very familiar problem.

Reviews

Kirkus Reviews

“Notably, this is no morality tale with a neat and tidy ending; rather, it’s a strong example of what not to do that honestly explores the consequences of jealousy and stubbornness. A candid and authentic glimpse at the rocky road that is negotiating social interactions.”—Kirkus Reviews
