Little Boat

Reach for this book when your child is facing a transition that makes them feel small, such as starting preschool or attempting a new skill independently. Little Boat is a metaphorical journey about a tiny vessel navigating a vast, unpredictable ocean. While the world around him is giant and sometimes intimidating, the story emphasizes that even the smallest traveler possesses the internal strength to navigate big waves. It is an ideal choice for the 2 to 5 age group because it uses simple, rhythmic language to normalize feelings of vulnerability while celebrating the quiet bravery of persistence. Parents will appreciate how the book transforms the intimidating concept of 'the big world' into a space of wonder and manageable adventure.
