Mili and the Dragonfly

A nice little book about empathy. This is a simple, clean and cute story about a little dragonfly which gets stuck in Mili and Milos house. They get a bit scared and think of squashing it but their mom makes the kids imagine themselves in the dragonflies shoes. Mili and Milo start filling empathy towards the little bug and set it free. The message is plain and clear for children to understand. My son got quite engaged in the story and I could see how his feelings of empathy grew along with the characters. The illustrations are bright and colorful, with a sweet girly touch to them. The style is clean and works well with kids. I would recommend this book for any child to help develop his sense of empathy towards others and especially the smaller and more vulnerable creatures.
