Title: The Art Boy Who Won't Share (Shani and Friends Book 1)

Author: Shani T Night

Genre: Children’s Fiction, Children’s Picture Books


Book Blurb:


This is a book about sharing and becoming friends. From meeting at school to becoming friends, and learning how to share. Shani and Reggie show how asking nicely can go a long way!


My Review:


Learn the valuable lesson of sharing with Shani and Reggie. At school, Shani wonders why Reggie draws such wonderful drawings but doesn’t share them. It isn’t until she asks him that she discovers the true meaning of sharing and friendship. Invite the whole family to read along as you enter Shani’s world.


The Art Boy Who Won’t Share is a delightful children’s book with a good message. This picture book has simple wording preschool and early readers will understand in an easy-to-read font. The illustrations appear to be hand-drawn with soft textures while using primary colors. This book is perfect for children to listen to during storytime, naptime, or before bedtime. This book can also teach children to read. The message on sharing is one any child can relate to and comprehend. Highly recommend!
