Blessings of the Nephite Children is an adorable board book for toddlers and young children.  It has brightly colored pictures depicting Jesus interacting and blessing children.  As a mother with her first baby on the way, this a perfect book to include in my bag to take to church.  I would recommend this uplifting story to young children just beginning to learn and understand the gospel.

Flossy is the bossiest girl around. She's bossy at home and she's bossy in school. She's bossy to her friends and she's bossy to her cat. Sometimes she's even bossy to her teacher! Flossy doesn't understand why no one will listen to her. One day, Flossy meets Edward, a boy who may be just as bossy as she is. Has Flossy finally met her match?

Just being bossy...

Swing like me...

Time-out

​Bossy Flossy by Paulette Bogan is a fun and entertaining book that kids will not only love, but parents or teachers can use as a teaching tool on being bossy.  This book teaches children the meaning of the word bossy and that it is not very fun to get bossed around.  It is more fun when everyone gets along.  The plot of the story is about a young girl that is bossy to everyone all the time.  She does not realize how not fun it is for everyone around her until another bossy boy comes along and starts bossing her and everyone else around.  These young children learn to work through their bossiness and be nice to each other and their other class mates.  Additionally, each page is filled with brilliantly bright and delightfully colorful pictures that are engaging, as well as help depict the delightful story. I would recommend this story to teachers, parents, and kids as a learning tool and a fun story to read together.
