A mother or father who reads this book to their children will no doubt pick up on some simple concepts to try out during real-world situations. In addition to the lesson about empathy, “Start With Sorry” also provides an example or two of good parenting. At the end, they’re able to work out how to play off of each other’s strengths in a way that makes them both feel like winners, without detracting from the value of working hard towards achieving a goal. “Start With Sorry” is just that it’s a book about siblings Luna and Asher who compete in some ways and cooperate in others. I’ve found that teaching through storytelling is a much better method to engage young children. Empathy is an important life skill when it comes to social interaction and building lasting relationships with others, and more often than not, a parent can come across as an authoritarian lecturer when trying to explain this concept to a young child. I wrote “ Start With Sorry” with this simple concept in mind. Writing is my passion, particularly when it comes to helping to guide the children of our future through positive messaging.
