Reach for this book when your child feels the pressure of comparison or is being teased for their daydreaming nature. While other children may be hitting milestones or finishing tasks quickly, your little one might be the dreamer who needs extra time to process the beauty of the world. This story validates that stillness and observation are not laziness, but essential parts of the creative process. P. Zonka is a hen who doesn't lay eggs like the others. Instead of focusing on chores, she spends her time admiring the blue of the sky and the moss on the trees. When she finally does lay an egg, it is a magnificent work of art that reflects everything she has witnessed. This is a gentle, visually stunning celebration of neurodiversity and the unique timing of every individual's gifts, perfect for ages 4 to 8.
