Reach for this book when your child returns from school feeling like their private thoughts or creative ideas don't quite fit into the structured school day. It is an ideal choice for the quiet dreamer who might feel overshadowed by more outgoing peers or who worries that their inner world is too different to share. Miriam Cohen captures the delicate vulnerability of childhood social dynamics with remarkable grace. In this story, Eddy has a vivid, wonderful dream that he is eager to share, but the fast-paced environment of the classroom makes it difficult to find his voice. Through gentle interactions with his teacher and classmates, the book explores themes of patience, validation, and the importance of active listening. It is a comforting read for ages 5 to 8 that helps normalize the feeling of being 'out of sync' and provides a roadmap for finding belonging through small, authentic connections.
