Through gentle prose, it validates the internal richness of children who may not express themselves traditionally. It is a beautiful choice for children aged 4 to 9, offering a message of hope and the importance of finding one's own unique light. It helps parents bridge the gap between their child's internal experience and the external world, normalizing the need for different ways of connecting.
