About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the urge to be the center of attention or feels they need a special talent to fit in. While the humor centers on a silly burping contest, the heart of the story addresses the common childhood anxiety of social comparison. Through the nocturnal adventures of the Nocturnals animal pack, children learn that true friendship is built on mutual support rather than outshining others. It is an ideal choice for the 5 to 7 age range, using gentle humor to navigate the transition from self-centered play to collaborative social dynamics. Parents will appreciate how it validates the desire to be noticed while redirecting that energy toward being a good friend.
