About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing a significant life transition, such as moving to a new home, starting a new school, or navigating the bittersweet feeling of outgrowing a comfortable situation. It is a gentle, poetic exploration of the 'whisper' inside us that says it is time for a change, even when we are currently happy. Through the journey of a bear who leaves his cozy life to seek a new horizon, children learn that listening to their intuition is a form of bravery. Marianne Dubuc's soft illustrations and thoughtful pacing provide a safe space for 4 to 8 year olds to process the anxiety and excitement that come with the unknown. This story doesn't just normalize the fear of change: it celebrates the resilience and new friendships found on the other side of a big transition.
