Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Zebra Tales
Daria Kathleen · 2015
58/100
👎 Skip It
Zebra Tales offers gentle emotional coaching for young children through a likable zebra character, and the mindfulness angle is age-appropriate and clean. What holds it back is the self-published production quality and the crowded social-emotional learning picture book market, where better-resourced series with more editorial oversight compete for the same shelf space. A caring caregiver tool, but not a standout.
