What Should Darla Do?: Featuring the Power to Choose Hardcover – November 26, 2019

We love this book! Would love more from the author! Easy to understand concepts, age appropriate, engaging beautiful pictures and relatable real life circumstances. Helps drive home if you do this, than that is your choice but there will be consequences language that is a parent’s ( and her teachers ) best friend. So helpful in redirecting your little one, and reinforcing positive behavior!! Get this book, would also make a beautiful gift for little ones that love books and story time!

I used this to help teach my 7 year old good and bad consequences directly without her making the bad choices directly. All of a sudden she started pushing the envelope with certain behaviors and I was looking for materials to help her understand why she should make good choices/not fighting with siblings, helping others/sharing, etc. This book is great because it let's her explore multiple choices and consequences in a safe and positive way and comes with a cute poster to remind her of the power to choose. Love it and would definitely recommend.A boy version should exist somewhere for boys to identify with (I hope) but Darla is great

The media could not be loaded. If you have the what would Danny books this is the counterpart and it’s a little girl named Darla. She gets to make decisions in the book.The child reads a story or if they are a non-reader you could read the story to them, and then they choose the answer they think is the right decision. You get to go to the page and read about if it’s the right or wrong decision and why. The child also gets to do it again if they want.There are plenty of stories in this book. It would be great for parents, grandparents and teachers. It’s very engaging. I bought the counterpart to these books a few years ago for for my grandson and I bought this book for my granddaughter although these books can be used for both boys and girls.There is also a little poster that you could hang up or even frame for a child’s room or a classroom.

I’m editing my review since we have now had the book for some time and it is the most loved book in our house. The kids keep coming back to it because of all the fun stories and the fact that they can interact with the book by making decisions. I think this book has shaped their behavior in a positive way and I am so grateful for this. This book is AMAZING! Not only is it fun and interesting but the kids learn something new every time we read it. They love making the different choices and seeing where the story goes. It’s really unlike any other children’s book... other than What Should Danny Do? which got us hooked on these creative books. I’m so glad they came out with another book. Darla is a wonderful character who my kids can really relate to.What I love most is the way the book is really from Darla’s perspective so it is the way a young kid may view the world. I saw another reviewer mention that she didn’t like the way Darla blamed things on her sister, but that is EXACTLY what young kids do. It is not in the heat of her frustration that Darla takes responsibility for her mistakes because that would be unreasonable for a child of her age. It is the fact that she reflects on her days and mistakes that is the true genius of this story. It makes it not only more relatable, but something that we as parents can teach our children and actually expect of them. I LOVE Darla’s interactions with her friends and sister because they’re not always perfect and that is what we as parents are trying to teach our children to navigate in life - dealing with challenges that come our way and making the best decisions possible at each point. This book has changed the behavior of our children for the better because they can relate to Darla’s challenges and the decisions she is faced with.The illustrations are stunning and captivate the kids and making your own choices to see how the story turns out is so much fun! I highly recommend this book if you’re looking for a relatable character to help shape behavior in a very positive way.

I only gave us a four star because it has plastic seal around it so I wasn’t able to read the book. I did get a small preview of it online and it seems I sent a great message about being yourself and the sky’s the limit. He talks about being you and making the right decisions.

I was looking for an interactive book to read during story time with my four year old. She loves to ask questions about books that I usually buy and this has to be one of the best books that I have yet to find. I love how my toddler gets to Make her own choices on how she wants the story to end. It teaches her so many different skills, such as decision-making, understanding, good and bad decisions. She also loves to see how a decision can affect outcomes. I wish there were more books in this series as there are absolutely amazing for toddlers. I have bought it a couple of times to regift and have also recommended it to others.

I bought this for my 7tear old and she loved it!! So many stories in one. She loves that you can choose the ending and then start over again and read an entirely different story.

The art is wonderful the story is amazing. My daughter asked me to read it three times in a row the first time reading it. I was so amazed at how quickly she understood that her choices affected outcomes of the story. Great book highly recommend

We read this almost every night. My daughter loves to go back and pick different choice to see how things turn out.

The moral dilemmas and consequences of each action are wonderful.

Ein sehr schönes Buch.

Beautiful book in every way! Quality, content and message. Our daughter will surely enjoy making choices and seeing possible outcomes once she is a little older to understand it. But I love it now!

Beautiful illustrations, introduces the concept of consequences in such a simple and fun way.
