About the Book
"Feeling tangled, twisted, or just in a funk? This tender picture book highlights the tiny things even the youngest readers can try as they see what big differences await them on the other side. It highlights the beauty of slowing down when you're not at full capacity and instead focuses on the movements of your body, getting out those crunchy bits, and seeing what extraordinary capabilities we have within us--and they'll see that there's not a thing to change about themselves."--Provided by publisher.
