Product Description

Meet the Good Egg — he’s very, very good. He follows the rules, checks his list, and keeps the group on track. But when the rest of the dozen start acting “bad,” our Good Egg starts to crack under the pressure of trying to be perfect. In The Good Egg, the acclaimed creators of The Bad Seed explore what happens when “good” becomes overwhelming — and the path to balance, self-care and learning that being kind includes being kind to yourself. 
 
Illustrated with vibrant, expressive art and told with clever humour, this 40-page picture book invites young readers (4–8 yrs) into a meaningful story: it’s okay to stop trying to be flawless, it’s okay to rest, and it’s okay to ask for help. This makes it both a fun read and a meaningful message for early learners.
 
Whether you’re adding it to a child’s personal library, using it in a classroom to spark discussion about self-care, or gifting it as part of a thoughtful bundle, The Good Egg stands out as both entertaining and wise—a perfect fit for premium children’s lifestyle collections.
