Babysitting SugarPaw is a great book for kids that will be having a babysitter, or afraid of their babysitter. SugarPaw does not want his parents to go away and leave him with new babysitter Bonnie Wiskers. Sugarpaw changes the rules, without the others seeing, and goes along the evening being mischievious. He makes many messes for Bonnie Wiskers and by the end of the evening realizes she will be the one getting into trouble. The story shows how fear can turn into fun, and shows emotions like empathy and forgiveness. This is a fun story, and the illustrations(by Kevin Collier) are cute. My son automatically acted out the emotion of the cover, by copying the expression of Bonnie Wiskers and giving a big sigh. The illustrations re colorful and are right on with expressing the emotions of the characters. He also enjoyed coloring the picture of SugarPaw, that we printed from their website, while I read him the story. My daughter smiled and thought SugarPaw making messes was pretty funny!
