Harrison P. Spader, Personal Space Invader
Harrison P. Spader sat a little too close. Shook hands a little too long. High-fived a little too hard. And hugged a little too much. Harrison P. Spader was a personal space invader. But that all changes when he learns the Space Saver rhyme: Arms out front, then out real wide. Now place your arms back by your sides. Author Christianne Jones uses humor and relatable situations to teach early learners about self awareness. This entertaining picture book in the Little Boost series will tackle a much-needed topic for teachers, parents, and librarians.

Praise for this book
Atkinson's illustrations display just enough hyperbole to be funny, and Jones' text captures Harrison's common-enough problem without mocking his youthful enthusiasm for personal contact. . . .Altogether a useful and attractive story with an often needed lesson.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
Whether or not young readers actually recognize and apply the book's "lesson", Harrison P. Spader, Personal Space Invader is still a fun read, one greatly enhanced by Atkinson's cartoon-like illustrations.-- "CM: Canadian Review of Materials"
This book has been an absolute life saver this school year. We have had to do so many extra social skills lessons on personal space with our kindergarten kiddos. This was definitely a favorite and has such great concrete examples. . . .we are also now able to remind kids to not be "space invaders" thanks to the language in the story. I highly recommend this one!-- "Books That Heal Kids"
