Lily learns to listen with more than her ears in this fifth picture book in the 7 Habits of Happy Kids series. On a rainy day, Lily wants to make cookies. But instead of paying attention to the recipe, she tells her dad she knows what she is doing. When Lily’s friends spit out her cookies, she wonders what went wrong!

Featuring the lovable characters of 7 Oaks, this book addresses the fifth habit of happy kids: “Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood.” This story highlights the importance of listening—and how you can listen with your eyes and your heart as well as your ears.

本書為《快樂孩子的七個習慣》系列的第五冊，莉莉在書中學到聆聽不只要用耳朵。這天下著雨，而莉莉想烤餅乾，她不但不好好參考食譜，還告訴父親她知道該怎麼做。當朋友先後將她烤的餅乾從嘴裡吐出來時，莉莉還在思索著那裡做錯了。

本書有可愛的七橡樹人物，故事圍繞著「快樂孩子的七個習慣」中的第五個習慣：「先求自己懂，再求別人懂。」本書點出了聆聽的重要性，以及該如何利用眼睛、耳朵和心來聆聽。
