Reach for this book when your child is experiencing their first big worry or if they are just beginning to learn the power of persistence. It is a gentle, comforting story about a young boy who loses his pet and travels the world to find it. Along the way, he encounters many 'cats' that aren't his (from lions to tigers) before a joyful reunion at the end. It validates the feeling of looking for something special while introducing the idea that sometimes the things we find along the way are just as interesting as what we are looking for. Ideal for toddlers and preschoolers, this classic uses simple, repetitive language to build confidence and vocabulary. It is a perfect choice for teaching resilience through a lens of safety and love.
