Overview
A Friend for Henry meets A Boy with Big, Big Feelings in this imaginative social-emotional picture book about a quiet girl finding her place in an overwhelming world.
Bea likes the quiet.
When the world gets to be too much, she finds pockets of peace where she can read, imagine, dream--but the noise always seems to find her. Everyday things like playing at recess, participating in class, even interacting with siblings can be overwhelming, and it starts to feel like the world wasn't built for her.
But could it be there are others who feel the same way?
This imaginative picture book captures the experience of every quiet kid trying to find their place--and their people--in the world.
Perfect for:
- The shy kid in your life
- Teaching empathy
- Readers looking for stories featuring neurodivergence
