Big Berry

Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the 'more is better' mindset or feels frustrated when their reach exceeds their grasp. It is a gentle tool for moments of greed, over-ambition, or the common toddler meltdowns that occur when a prize turns out to be too big to handle. The story follows Bink, a small creature who goes on a quest for the biggest berry in the forest, only to find that the ultimate prize is actually a burden. Through Bink's journey, children learn that true satisfaction comes from things that are 'just right' for them. It is perfectly paced for preschoolers, using humor and relatable scale to teach the difficult concepts of gratitude and knowing when to be content. This is a lovely choice for winding down after a day of big emotions, helping children find peace in the present moment.
