Lovevery Biting Hurts (Tricky Topics)

Great book and written in a way that sounds natural. It was helpful language for me to learn, and it helped my kiddo hear the same phrases from me and the book.

If a great book to support understanding for children experiencing emotional learning challenges.

This is such a great book for dealing with biting. The use of photos instead of drawings makes more real to a toddler.

Great book that helps babies and toddlers navigate those biting moments. Giving them alternative ways to deal with things when they are mad or frustrated. I love that we were able to have this as a resource right when our baby started biting.

We love Lovevery books - we have almost all of them. I’m not sure how effective this particular book was for my daughter though, after she read it she bit me (mom) for the first time. As if she learned that was an option. We were hoping to curb very occasional biting of her sister. She loves to read it though and hasn’t bit another child since receiving it, so maybe the messaging was there!

I have 2 kids with developmental disabilities, and both of them bite at times. I got this book to use with my younger son. This book feels similar to a social story, which are commonly used with kids who have difficulty understanding cause and effect of their actions. I like that this is a well made board book, it will be durable for the rough handling that my kids sometimes have. This book has nice photos depicting a boy having a hard day and how he deals with it. The story is ok, it may or may not convince a kid to not bite. I like that it explains other ways to get out frustrations. It was funny when I read the book to my son, he was really into the story until he realized that the story was going to have a message that he would rather not think about. There is a QR code on the the back of the book for more resources on the topic. I have not looked at that yet. I would be interested to check out another book by this company, since the book is such a nice quality. Overall, I recommend this book for teaching a kid about why biting isn't ok.

Most Lovevery books have been magic for us, but this one had unintended effects. My 1.5 year old son at least warns us before biting now, but is now very interested in biting because he loves the book. It also has introduced the word "Mine!" to him, unfortunately.

My toddler loves reading this book. The text is well written and we like the real pictures. However, it has not reduced his biting…so…
