My Turn, Your Turn is one of the books in the Bright Start series based on sharing. It follows two children, Malik and Cora, who both want to play with the same plane but learn that it is better to share with the help of their teacher.

I think this is a fantastic book and it demonstrates brilliantly how to take turns. Seeing the children arguing and reluctance over sharing toys is very relatable for the children and the characters show brilliantly how most children feel when someone wants what they have. The story is very easy for the children to understand and is quite short but it gets the message across effectively and allows the children to think about whether they think it's fair or not if Cora was to take Malik's toy or if it's better for them to take turns and share.

The characters in the story are great with them being very relatable for the children and it is brilliant to see how they react and their feelings changing as the story goes on. I liked how the teacher was understanding and helped the children to resolve the issue by turning it into a game and I like that this decision was based only on this issue and not insinuating that you should share every time. I always see sharing as something that is dependant on the appropriateness of the situation as like an Early Years professional once said, if I want your phone right now you wouldn't give it to me but you should share as that's what we make children do!

The illustrations are lovely all in shades of purple, they have a good amount of detail to get the point across but are not too busy which is great. This allows us to focus on the message which is the most important part of the story. I think this is a fantastic book and great to help children to understand the importance of taking turns and considering others feelings in a fun little story, perfect for young children!

Nancy Loewen has written another classroom book to show children to achieve goals. This one is how to share.
Two children and one aeroplane! However, with sharing Malik and Cora can still have fun and play with the same toy.
Simple words and pictures gets the message across.

A great example of sharing and I especially love the empathy the teacher shows to the children. Turning the situation into a game is a smart tactic to use with children and it lets them still feel in control.

A perfectly simple and perfectly decent look at the benefits of sharing, in this book for the very young. In barely twenty words a page we get the whole story of two children and how they interrupt each other's play with a toy plane, until advised to do otherwise. Bonus marks for having the girl love robots, and also for the clear, simple, black-and-white-and-blue design (although why it felt the need to switch to aerial view I don't know).

This is a very simple book, perfect for very young children. If your child or young students are struggling with sharing and taking turns this would be a helpful tool to teach appropriate skills.

My Turn, Your Turn is a very good book for young children who find it difficult to share; this is really something that is true for most toddlers and preschoolers. In this simple story, two children squabbling over a toy, get an idea from an adult about how to work it out. A useful lesson in a book with expressive illustrations in just a few colors.

My Turn, Your Turn is a quick and cute to the point story. Ms. Wright helps Malik and Cora with their feelings of being frustrated with wanting to play with the same toy. She comes up with the idea "Shinning Express" so they can play together with the toy. The pages of the book are uncluttered with simple but eye catching illustrations. This is perfect for preventing the young reader to get easily distracted. The message to the reader comes across in a short precise manner.

This is a quick and easy read. A fun book aimed at young kids, my four year old enjoyed it, and she loved the illustrations too.

What a cute book! I love the concept of this series and would love to read the other books as well. As the new parents of an infant, I think this simple story will be very helpful in years ahead as we teach our little girl to share with others. The illustrations are age appropriate and eye-catching—even with just a few colors! I love that this is a board book, which is perfect for the age it’s intended for. Well done!

I received an advance copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

This simple story shares a wonderful life lesson that is best taught at an early age... sharing! Malik and Cora find themselves in a tug of war over who gets to play with the same toy plane. As frustrations and yes, even tempers escalate, their kind patient teacher Ms. Wright stages an intervention. She suggests that they play a game together and to play the game they must take turns and share with each other. This important concept is then carried over into all the other activities the now happy duo participate in. Brilliant strategy!

The premise of the book is very easy for little ones to comprehend as I'm sure most children will be familiar with what's happening between the two and have had similar feelings and experiences. The message of the book is positive, motivating and gets results. The illustrations are adorable and expressive. The book highlights the importance of taking turns and showing consideration for others feelings in the process. I highly recommend this book.
