Reach for this book when your child is starting to explore more independence or if they have an upcoming school field trip. It is a perfect choice for the preschooler or early elementary student who sometimes gets so caught up in the excitement of a new place that they forget to stay with the group. Through the eyes of two charming animal friends, children can process the mix of thrill and mild worry that comes with navigating a large, public space. The story follows Gaspard and Lisa as they accidentally get separated from their class during a trip to the Natural History Museum. While the museum is full of wonder, the two friends must rely on one another to find their way back. It is a gentle exploration of curiosity, problem-solving, and the importance of following rules without being overly didactic. Parents will appreciate the oil-painting art style and the way it models a realistic, albeit adventurous, childhood mishap.
