Rose's Sharing Smile. A Coloring and Story Book About the Joy of Sharing and Making Friends - Shu Chen Hou

Rosie Rabbit has a basket full of crunchy, sweet orange carrots, and she has no plans to share-not today! To Rosie, her carrots are her treasure, and she hugs her basket tight whenever her friends Benny Bunny and Lola Lop come near. But as she watches her friends play and laugh together, Rosie begins to feel a little bit lonely under her big oak tree. She soon discovers that a basket full of carrots is nice, but a heart full of friendship is much better.

Rose's Sharing Smile is a foundational Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) resource designed for children aged 4 to 10. This interactive coloring and story book addresses the common childhood milestone of learning to share personal belongings. Through Rosie's journey, young readers see the direct link between generosity and happiness. The narrative helps children understand that sharing doesn't mean having less; it means gaining more joy through the "sharing smiles" of others.

Authored by Dr. Shu Chen Hou and published by Kokoshungsan Ltd., this book combines pedagogical expertise with a charming, interactive format. By inviting children to color Rosie's sunny meadow and her bright orange carrots, the book provides a creative way to internalize the values of kindness and community. It is an ideal addition to home libraries, early childhood classrooms, and school counseling offices, helping children transform "mine" into "ours" while fostering lifelong social skills.
