Reach for this book when your child feels like their world has been overtaken by a younger sibling or when the repetitive nature of family life has left them feeling crabby and overlooked. It is a gentle, relatable story about a young boy who decides he has had enough of 'mushy' baby cereal and the constant needs of his little brother, leading him to seek refuge and a little extra attention at his grandmother's house. Through the lens of a Saturday morning walk, the story explores themes of autonomy, displacement, and the rejuvenating power of a special relationship outside the immediate home. It is perfect for children ages 4 to 8 who are navigating the complex emotions of sibling rivalry. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's frustration without making them feel guilty for wanting some space for themselves.
