People Don’t Bite People by Lisa Wheeler - ESSENTIAL


People Don’t Bite People by Lisa Wheeler.  Illustrated by Caldecott Honoree Molly Idle. PICTURE BOOK. Atheneum, 2018. $18. 9781481490825.


BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

People Don’t Bite People teaches children what they should and should not do with their teeth. It explains that babies and animals do not understand rules and social awareness and shouldn’t be held to the same standard. People Don’t Bite People drills into reader’s minds that biting is for food only.

I read People Don’t Bite People to the appropriate audience, a 2-year-old, and he absolutely loved it. It has excellent rhythm and artistry. It is witty and entertaining.  People Don’t Bite People is an excellent teaching aid to help children who are having problems chewing on things they should not, or even biting others.
