The Good-Bye BookPaperback – 31 March 1992. by Judith Viorst(Author), Kay Chorao(Illustrator). I bought this book to help my daughter with her fears of going to daycare.

The Good-Bye BookPaperback – 31 March 1992. This book was recommended by an article i read on the problem and how to deal with it. We recieved the book and i have to say, i am pretty disapointed. The drawings in the book were nice but the story, specially the ending, was pretty pointless.

ISBN13: 9780689715815.

The illustrations are colorful, simple, and very expressive. The thing I like best about this book is that I can feel every page of the book as the boy uses his dramatics to get what he wants.

Only 18 left in stock (more on the way). The illustrations are colorful, simple, and very expressive. I love the picture where he talks about how he is now feeling sick and that he must be dying. He is lying there like a master actor in the most dramatic pose.

Beloved children's author Judith Viorst and Caldecott-winning illustrator Lane Smith offer a fresh and funny tale with several surprise endings!

This little boy will do anything to avoid an evening with the baby-sitter. He pleads with his parents. He begs. He bargains. Maybe he has a fever of a hundred and ten. Maybe he'll run away. Maybe he won't say good-bye!

I bought this book to help my daughter with her fears of going to daycare. This book was recommended by an article i read on the problem and how to deal with it. We recieved the book and i have to say, i am pretty disapointed. The drawings in the book were nice but the story, specially the ending, was pretty pointless. It does a decent job of showing the childs fear of his parents leaving him at his baby sitter, but the ending, where the child realizes everything will be ok is just shown in pictures and not text, therefore the person reading the book has to explain to the child why the boy in the book is happy to be left with the babysitter. I could have gotten the same thing by just sitting down with my daughter and trying to explain things. If you are looking for a book to help ease the fear of going to daycare or a sitters buy the book The Kissing Hand by Audry Penn, it does a much better job.

To those people who objected to the child in the book not dealing well with separation, well...duh. If you want present a model of a child behaving well, you miss the point. This child expresses all the feelings children sometimes feel at being left and gives a voice to them. It helps to deal with the feelings, not subdue them. This is a child centered book and the children in my preschool class return to it because it acknowledges the feelings they have, expressed or not. Thank-you Judith Viorst and Kay Chorao for understanding children.

A really cute idea for a book. Ideal for those parents who use babysitters. A humorous take on babysitters and finding the ideal one!

Thank you

I like this author. She has written some really great books, and this has been added. I needed this book for a class project and it was used and appreciated. Now, it also has been added to my personal library at home for the grandkids.

I liked this book but I did not like it as much as others I have purchased.

This book was surprisingly bad. With my daughter going through separation issues this was recommended to read to her. Well, it's totally not helpful and seems like it's made more for adult humor. The sarcasm and negativity that pretty much is the content of the whole book except for the last page. I think it unintentionally encourages the reader to have new ideas/ complaints as to why the parents shouldn't leave him. Could be funny for adult but not for a kid who is really trying to work through something.

A little's boy's parents are getting ready to go out for an evening and leave the boy with a babysitter. The boy pulls every trick out of his hat to keep the parents at home, but they leave anyway as the babysitter comes. Things turn out better than the boy could have imagined.

The illustrations are colorful, simple, and very expressive.

The thing I like best about this book is that I can feel every page of the book as the boy uses his dramatics to get what he wants. I love the picture where he talks about how he is now feeling sick and that he must be dying. He is lying there like a master actor in the most dramatic pose. The boy goes through all of the emotions. He tries being dramatic, then his fear appears and then he gets angry. I would have liked to hear some reassurance from the parents and the last few pages are a bit short and incongruent with the rest. But otherwise this is a cute story. With so many emotions portrayed, it would be simple to talk with your child about the many emotions of separation, how that feels, and how to deal with it. I like that this book is emotions centered.

Recommended for ages 3-6. I think 4-7 would be better able to understand the emotional aspect of the story.
