You go first - Mercer Mayer

Join Little Critter as he learns why it's important to be kind and treat others as you want to be treated instead of selfishly taking the first turn.

Since 1975, Mercer Mayer has been writing and illustrating stories about Little Critter and the antics he stumbles into while growing up. Tommy Nelson is thrilled to bring this beloved brand that humorously portrays social and emotional issues that kids face to the Christian market with faith-based books featuring Little Critter.
