Llama Llama is a classic in our house, and this book is such a clever way to show cause and effect when it comes to messes.

I love how it uses imagination to get kids thinking about their role in keeping things tidy. Bonus points for the sweet mama/child moment!

Lama has a messy room that he doesn’t want to cleanup. His mama asks Lama to think of a world where mamas didn’t clean up. With the chaos that a dirty mama leaves behind, Lama quickly cleans up and realizes that even little llamas need to help clean.

From Jessica's list on inspiring kids to enjoy clean up time.
