Reach for this book when your toddler is beginning to assert their independence or when they seem captivated by the small, everyday movements of the world around them.

Through the lens of a tiny kitten, the book validates a young child's natural curiosity and their desire to explore beyond their immediate boundaries. While the text is brief and rhyming, the true heart of the book lies in Tana Hoban's iconic black and white photography. It follows a kitten through a series of 'firsts': squeezed through a hole, meeting a turtle, and eventually returning to the safety of its mother. It is a gentle exploration of freedom and the comfort of home, perfectly scaled for the preschooler who is learning to navigate their own environment with growing confidence.
