About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is bursting with restless energy and needs a positive outlet for their wildest 'big kid' imaginings.

It is an ideal choice for transitioning from a high-energy afternoon into a shared reading moment, as it validates the intensity of a child's imagination while modeling how to channel that spirit into creative storytelling. Victoria Kann, known for the Pinkalicious series, brings her signature vibrant style to a story that celebrates bravery, teamwork, and the joy of make-believe.
