Jory JohnThe Cool Bean (The Food Group)

My 3.5 year old daughter loves story time. During these COVID-19 extended days at home, I wanted to get some new books. Both the author John Jory and Pete Oswald the Illustrator of this book are fantastic. This book is part of a three book series. I first purchased the The Cool Beans, followed by the Bad Seed and then finally the Good Egg to complete the set. My daughter's favorite of the three book series is the Bad Seed, followed by the Cool Beans, and finally the Good egg but she likes them all. I highly recommend this entire series.As a mom, I like that the books are also educational. They touch on emotions, feelings, how those emotions/behaviors are received and how you can alter change your emotions. It also gives them great life examples of good, bad and cool behaviors which is great with navigating a toddler through all the different emotions that they go through. She also understands that you can be happy, sad, angry. I like that the Cool Beans touches on kindness and acceptance of others. Kids need kindness!Three Book SeriesThe Cool Beans (My daughter's second favorite)The Bad Seed (My daughter's favorite of the set)The Good Egg (My daughter's third favorite)

These books are what prompted my daughter to grow an extreme love for reading. We have fun looking at the illustrations and talking about them after we read each page.. we appreciate all the little things that go into these books which always teach a subtle lesson. The kids don’t even realize we are not only getting in some reading time, which is great for the mind, but also learning how to navigate important and sometimes tough life lessons. All while getting lost in the magic of a good book that truly makes you feel like you are inside the book with the characters.

"The Bean" books are adorable!!! Perfect for little kids around 2-9!

These books are great! The pictures, the message and the story are all really well done and they all send such a great message! Highly recommended!

My children liked the message of the book and the characters were nice, sweet and cool. I would recommend this book for children 10 and under

I teach elementary and all my students love this series. I have most of the books, some hard cover, some soft cover. These books are engaging and full of wonderful pictures. They are bright and colorful. I recommend this whole series.

That's what I hear every time it gets read. Added it to the rest of the series, a great set of books for the 3 and 6 year olds.
