Reach for this book when your youngest child is feeling overshadowed by their bigger, faster, or louder siblings. It is the perfect antidote to the frustration of being the one who always gets the smallest toy, the hand-me-down bike, or the least amount of responsibility. Through a simple, repetitive structure, the story validates the feelings of a child who feels 'less than' compared to those around them. Titch is the smallest in every category: he has the tiniest kite, the littlest bike, and the shortest stool. While his older siblings, Mary and Pete, flaunt their superior sizes and possessions, the story takes a magical turn when Titch is given a tiny seed. As the seed grows into a giant plant that towers over everyone, the narrative shifts the power dynamic. It is a gentle, comforting read for children aged 2 to 5 that reinforces the idea that great things come from small beginnings and that every family member has their own unique time to shine.
