My kid has a hard time not blurting things out, and this book's playful descriptions of words wiggling and jiggling really clicked with her. The story makes the concept of waiting your turn feel fun, not like a lecture.

My five-year-old can't stop laughing at Louis's wiggling words and jiggling tongue—it's become our nightly read-aloud ritual. The way it turns his impulse to interrupt into something he actually recognizes in himself is pure magic.

I read this to my first-grader last night and the part about his tongue getting tangled really clicked with him—he actually paused mid-interruption today. We've only read it once but I can see it helping with his impulse control already.
