Reach for this book when your child is caught in a loop of frustration over a minor physical mishap or a failed attempt at doing something by themselves. It is the perfect antidote to the tears that often follow a loss of autonomy or a moment of perceived embarrassment. The story follows a young boy who gets his shirt stuck over his head while trying to undress for a bath. Instead of panicking, he begins a hilarious journey of imagining how he might live the rest of his life in this stuck position. This book is a masterclass in shifting a child's perspective from shame to creativity. By normalizing the feeling of being stuck, both literally and figuratively, it teaches resilience through humor. It is ideally suited for preschoolers and kindergarteners who are striving for independence but still occasionally find the world, and their own clothes, a bit too complicated to navigate. Parents will appreciate how it turns a potential meltdown into a moment of shared laughter.
