The perfect gift for toddlers just beginning to navigate the wonderful — and sometimes tricky! — world of sharing and friendship.

In That's Mine!, a toddler at childcare decides to claim all the toy animals for herself — only to find that having everything isn't much fun when there's no one to play with. This gentle, heartwarming story captures the very real tension little ones feel between wanting things all for themselves and the wish to connect with others. With a diverse cast of characters and soft, inviting illustrations, it's an ideal read-aloud for toddlers aged 2 and up.

Relatable for Little Ones: Toddlers will instantly recognise the "mine!" feeling, making this story a wonderful springboard for conversations about sharing and kindness.
An Authentic Snapshot of Toddler Life: Set in a childcare environment familiar to many young children, the story reflects real experiences without ever feeling preachy.
Celebrates Diversity: The book's inclusive cast of characters ensures that children from all backgrounds can see themselves in the story.
Durable Board Book Format: Sturdy pages are built to withstand enthusiastic little hands, making it perfect for babies and toddlers.

"This board book is perfect for little ones who are just learning how to interact with others . . . Soft backgrounds illuminate the story, whose diverse cast makes these lessons accessible to all." — Foreword Indies

"Altogether, the book creates a faithful snapshot of toddler interactions that will make caregivers smile knowingly and teaches an important lesson without being preachy." — Kirkus Reviews
