Book excerpt: In "The Best Way to Kill A Monster is to Stop Feeding It" by Dr. Christopher Bonn, readers follow the story of King Leo, a brave and wise leader who faces a challenge from monsters seeking to destroy his kingdom. While his advisors suggest appeasing the monsters, King Leo knows feeding them will only make them stronger. So instead, he listens to their concerns and addresses them individually while refusing to engage in their negative rumors and gossip. With time, the monsters weaken, and King Leo's kingdom remains prosperous and peaceful. This book teaches children the importance of not giving their time, energy, and attention to harmful people and instead standing firm in their beliefs and values.
