I absolutely love the Howard B. Wigglebottom series and the messages behind each story! For those of you who are not familiar with Howard B. Wigglebottom and the We Do Listen Foundation, We Do listen is a Non Profit Foundation that creates educational books, games, and songs to help young children learn life lessons and build self esteem.
From We Do Listen:
"The We Do Listen Non Profit Foundation is a group of writers, artists, designers, educators, therapists, parents, caregivers and teachers who share a vision of a kinder world with more harmony and peace and a better life for everyone to enjoy. Their books, animated books, songs, posters and lessons/discussion questions are intended to empower young children to deal with important life lessons like being a better listener, bullying, anger management, moderation, truth, divorce, peer pressure, belonging, generosity, sportsmanship, attention and feeling good about themselves."
This time around I received the opportunity to review Howard B. Wigglebottom and the Monkey on His Back which is a story for 4-8 year olds that explains the reasons why people lie, why they shouldn't lie, and how to go about making the right choices. There is also a fantastic animated version which can be found on the We Do Listen website! It's so much fun getting to see the character move and hear the dialogue.
Not only is the animated fun for children to watch, it also teaches the very important lesson of how we should always tell the truth!
After checking out the animated story, Head over to the songs section where you can listen to the "Telling the Truth is Cool" song that goes hand in hand with the story. The words of the song pop right up on the screen so you and your child can sing along to the tune!
Connect with Howard B. Wigglebottom on Facebook and Twitter. Make sure to check out all of their wonderful animated books, songs, and lessons on the We Do Listen website!
