NCLA Review -Sophie and Sam are whimsical mice who present a child's version of the adult book on boundaries, entitled Boundaries: When to Say "Yes" and When to Say "No" to Gain Control of Your Life. The author of this version for children is the wife of the author who wrote the adult version. She tells stories about these mice and their friends and how setting boundaries leads to a happier life. There are 10 boundaries, all with Biblical foundations: telling the truth, sharing, not whining, showing respect, cleaning up, handling meanies, following the rules, using good manners, not arguing, and thanking God. Each story ends with a scriptural reference. Illustrations are delightful and the stories are all in poem form. Ages 5 and up.
