About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing the 'growing pains' of early elementary school, such as feeling frustrated by mistakes or navigating the ups and downs of new friendships. It is a vibrant and high energy guide to resilience that uses humor to soften the edges of social challenges. The story follows two best friends and their robot as they explore whimsical planets, but the real journey is an emotional one. Through the characters' mottos of 'Progress not perfection' and 'We can do hard things,' the book provides a practical vocabulary for children learning to manage big feelings. It is an ideal choice for emerging readers who need a confidence boost and a reminder that even intergalactic adventures require teamwork and a positive mindset.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and lighthearted. It touches on minor social conflict and the threat of a 'tyrant' in a metaphorical, non-threatening way that mirrors playground dynamics. Potential 'peril' is always resolved through communication and perseverance.
