The Rules of a Little Boss by Haelee P. Moone

A brief and inspiring celebration of self-love and positive thinking, The Rules of a Little Boss by Haelee P. Moone, with illustrations by Arsalan, lays an ideal foundation for a child’s self-esteem. Vividly illustrated and paired with straightforward advice about exploring and embracing your unique identity, this book is an inclusive and progressive read for children moving through their formative years. Some of the images aren’t as clearly linked to the lines of text as others, and some subtle language tweaks could make the writing flow more smoothly, but these issues are minor. From overcoming bullies and expressing one’s truth to elevating others and resisting peer pressure, this is a meaningful new book for a young reader’s nightstand.
