The Cool Bean

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 Series The 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)

This is my favorite book in this series so far. The complexity in this story makes it a great book to teach many different skills to students. It also resonates with older elementary students. I used this in my 4th grade class to discuss what makes someone cool. It lead to great conversation and one of the messages from the book being that a true cool bean is kind to friends. We also discussed the importance of being kind because you never know the impact a kind act that may appear small can have on the recipient. The last lesson we learned from this book was about the lasting impact of friendships, and that even though you may drift apart because of different interests you can still maintain a connection and be there for each other. This book is awesome. I love the illustrations and the wonderful story.

This book series is incredible! There are several and they are all so smartly written and the illustrations are both fun and cute. As a former teacher, I love books that teach life lessons and this series is all about being kind, not always needing to fit in and how to make yourself feel good so you can make others feel good.

Nephew loves it

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

Pleased with purchase.

I love using these books along with the 7 habits or the 5 paradigms! My kinds love making connections with the characters and learning new things! They are fun, interactive and easy to enjoy! I’ve loved this addition to my classroom library!

I like Jory john’s book. His books are always humorous and make me laugh. He likes to put a lot of real life examples into the stories. Make it very easy to resonate with the characters in the book. I make it very easy to explain to children. Which is all about’s. When you learn something, you like it to be available to apply into your daily life. Highly recommended.

Great book just like the series. The size is also great.

A book so well written for kids.

I ordered 12 books at one go, and took turns to read a book every night to my 3.5 yr old daughter. This is the one she keeps coming back to you over and over again.

I never get to fit in so I read this book and that was really inspiring. Thank you Jory john.😁
