Helpful Hudson
By: Dannielle Pickford

This is such a fantastic book! I love the illustrations and the message that the author is trying to convey to the reader. Hudson is such a kind helpful boy, he helps his family with literally anything they need. However, one day he doesn’t feel like helping and instead builds a fort. His family tries their best to make him feel better. I truly love how this story is getting across the importance of self-care. I feel that this is an area that is not explicitly taught but that children will benefit from seeing it modeled through the story and through the adults around them. This book provides an excellent example of what self care is and what it looks like. I absolutely recommend this for classrooms and family libraries!
