Just a minute!
When it’s time to get ready to go out, Lightning’s mom asks him to wash up, get dressed, put on his shoes, and pack everything he needs. He’s a big boy now and can do it all by himself, but his answer is always the same: “Just a minute!”
One day, Uncle Thunder invites his young nephew to spend the day at the amusement park. Lightning is so excited that, for the very first time, he gets ready in a flash!
The book also includes a short booklet written by early childhood specialists. In this edition, psychologist Francesca Rifiuti offers practical guidance for parents, explaining how to share the story with their children and how to apply its ideas in everyday life.
Developing independence is a gradual process that should always respect each child’s age and stage of development. By encouraging age-appropriate activities, children build self-confidence, become more aware of time and space, and learn to trust their own abilities.
A delightful story that is both enjoyable to read and a valuable resource for children and the grown-ups who support them as they grow.
