Résumé
Nibbling Your Nails is a sunny, imaginative story that will make the little ones understand, in a fun way, the importance of developing good habits.
Sara is an expert in nail-biting. She practices many times during the day: when she waters the plants, when she looks at the stars with her giant telescope, even when she’s in math class! Sometimes she puts so much effort into it that she bites her finger! However, no matter how much she hurts herself, Sara does not stop biting her nails. But she does it unwittingly! Sarah’s teeth and stomach don’t seem to like that habit. They would be much happier eating real food, like apples or peppers… at least they don’t scratch!
One afternoon Grandma comes home with a great idea… She always arrives with a big laugh on her face, games, and endless conversations, but this time she brings her an unexpected gift. A gift that will make Sara use the clippers once and for all!
