Beans
Comes

A Paul and
Beans
Adventure
By Jennie
Hale Book
New
Children’s
Book Helps
Ease
Sibling
Rivalry
Featuring
Photos of
Golden
Retrievers
Teaches
Acceptance
Of New
Baby
Paul has
been an
only dog
his whole
life, and
he isn’t
sure he
wants to
share his
parents or
his toys
with his
new baby
brother,
Beans.
Will Paul
and Beans
get along
and learn
to like
each
other?
Join us
for the
beginning
chapter in
the
wonderful
new Paul
and Beans
Adventure
series.
The author
writes
about
jealousy
and the
many
issues
surrounding
becoming
accustomed
to a new
sibling,
with some
fun and
adventure
thrown in.
When baby
dog Beans
first
comes
home,
older
brother
Paul asks,
“Why are
my mommy
and daddy
holding
him
instead of
me?” By
using
photographs
of Golden
Retrievers
rather
than
illustrations
or photos
of other
babies,
children
will learn
indirectly
from the
story.
“Nobody
likes to
be hit
over the
head with
a lesson,”
Ms. Book
says.
“It’s more
fun for a
little kid
to read
about dogs
that are
dealing
with the
same
issues
they are
and
putting
two and
two
together
for
themselves,
rather
than being
told
blatantly
how
they’re
expected
to
behave.”
