Reach for this book when your child is facing a major life transition, such as moving to a new city, starting a new school, or navigating the complex feelings of immigration. This lyrical story follows a young boy who sets out across the ocean in a small boat, carrying nothing but a book, a bottle, and a single teacup filled with earth from his original home. As he journeys through vast waters and weathering storms, a tiny green speck begins to grow from the cup, symbolizing the resilience of the human spirit. It is a beautiful, allegorical tool for parents to help children process the bittersweet nature of saying goodbye while finding the courage to plant new roots. The gentle prose and expansive illustrations make it a comforting choice for children ages 4 to 8 who feel adrift in the face of change.
