Reach for this book when your child is navigating the highs and lows of a new friendship or needs a gentle way to process feelings of anxiety regarding unpredictable situations. Because it is wordless, it provides a unique opportunity for you and your child to slow down, observe body language, and practice emotional literacy together. It is an ideal choice for children who are visually observant but might be intimidated by traditional text heavy stories. The story follows Woodrow, a kindhearted elephant, and a small mouse he rescues from the sea. Together they face a churning storm and curious sea monsters, ultimately finding safety and joy in each other's company. The watercolor illustrations beautifully balance the scale of the vast ocean with the intimacy of their bond. It is a masterclass in resilience and empathy, showing that even the smallest gesture of kindness can turn a scary day into a grand adventure. Perfect for ages 3 to 7.
