Reach for this book when your child is struggling with perfectionism, the need to control their environment, or the realization that friendship requires flexibility rather than force. It tells the story of Amari, a self proclaimed expert in the very delicate art of walking ants. Through whimsical and slightly chaotic instructions, the story explores the trial and error of interacting with the natural world and the tiny creatures within it. Parents will appreciate the way it gently addresses the frustration of things not going according to plan. It is ideal for children aged 4 to 8 who are learning that sometimes the best way to connect with others is to stop leading and start listening. It is a beautiful, watercolor-drenched reminder that companionship often happens when we let go of our rigid expectations.
