Honest Mimi

About This Story

Mimi faces a choice about admitting a mistake. Honesty and the courage to speak are the centre of this story, offering a starting point for talking about what support can make truth-telling easier.

Read this story together at your child’s pace. The pictures and the character’s choices can be a starting point for noticing feelings and asking questions, rather than searching for a correct response. A child may want to talk, point to an illustration or simply listen. Leave room for their own interpretation, and return to a favourite moment if they wish. The suggested age range and themes help you choose a book; they do not set a test for how a child should understand or respond to the story.
