A lively and humorous depiction of healthy rough-and-tumble play between siblings.

When the oldest and youngest siblings decide to rumble, they do so with great imagination and careful consent. Wrecking ball! Steamroller! Bear hug! Sandwich!... The list goes on of inspiringly creative physical play scenarios, with a running narration of text bubbles between kids. When the middle sibling decides to join, the other two inform her of their safe word ("Cantaloupe"), which means "Stop everything!" An engaging and encouraging model of healthy rough-and-tumble play, the benefits of which are explained in pointer-rich back matter for adults.
