Product Description

Kirkus Best Book

"Don't boop this book away! Embrace this lively, creative look at asserting one's boundaries." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"The clever art is an ideal partner to highly readable, percussive text that emphasizes the harmony that can arise from respecting others' spaces and needs." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A lyrical lesson on personal boundaries with illustrations guaranteed to help enhance young readers' vocabularies and imaginations." --School Library Journal (starred review)
Bestselling author Rachel Vail and multiple Caldecott Medal winner Chris Raschka shine a spotlight on the importance of personal space in this SEL standout that also celebrates the ocean and sea life. Includes back matter.
Don't want to be booped? No problem! A sea anemone in the ocean confidently sets itself some personal boundaries, encouraging young readers on land to do the same.
You and Me, Anemone is a nuanced, thoughtful, playful picture book for young children about the delicate challenge of boundaries--having them, maintaining them, and respecting them in others. The playful, rhythmic, interactive text by award-winning author Rachel Vail pairs the science of sea life with social-emotional learning for terrific classroom potential. Two-time Caldecott Medal winner Chris Raschka's illustrations--created by painting and stitching on burlap--are a visual and emotional showstopper with a ton of kid appeal. Back matter includes an author's note and facts about the incredible sea anemone.
