BuppaLaPaloo & The I Love MEs: The most powerful little bear on the planet - Paperback

by Dee Wallace (Author), Vincenzo Lodato (Illustrator)

Dee Wallace's BuppaLaPaloo & The I Love MEs begins with a lonely, sad little boy sitting alone on a bench. BuppaLaPaloo enters and asks what's wrong. The little boy explains he doesn't know who he is, because everyone else is giving him definitions around how they see him: shy, not big enough, not a good playmate, etc. BuppaLaPaloo explains that the only person who can define him and decide who he is, is him! BuppaLaPaloo leads him through the process of deciding what he wants, and then deciding to BE that. The boy ends up stating exactly who he is in a powerful way that ends with joy and hugs all around. The lessons of BuppaLaPaloo books are centered on self-love, empowerment, choice, and action for children at the beginning stages of defining themselves, which define their lives.
