Reach for this book when you have a child who simply cannot sit still, whose body seems to be in a state of perpetual motion. It is an ideal pick for kids who find their joy in physical expression but sometimes struggle with the consequences of their own high energy. Little Miss Somersault is a character defined by her incredible athletic ability and her unstoppable zest for life. The story follows her acrobatic adventures as she flips her way through the day, from eating breakfast to helping friends. While it celebrates her physical confidence and unique talent, it also gently touches on the mishaps that occur when activity levels aren't quite matched to the environment. It is a lighthearted way to validate a child's high-energy identity while introducing the idea of spatial awareness and caution in a non-judgmental, humorous way.
