Reach for this book when your child is beginning to assert their own tastes and preferences, even when those choices seem oddly specific or stubborn. It is a perfect companion for a toddler or preschooler who is navigating the transition from being a baby who is dressed by others to a 'big kid' who knows exactly what they want to wear. The story follows a young girl named Rebecca and her mother on a trip to the shoe store. While the plot is simple, the emotional core is about the quiet pride of self-expression. It validates a child's need for autonomy while modeling a patient, supportive parent-child relationship. This is an ideal choice for normalizing the big feelings that come with small decisions and celebrating the joy of finding something that feels just right.
