Reach for this book when your child is feeling hesitant to join a new group or struggling to find their place in a world that feels a bit too quiet. It is a perfect choice for the observer child who watches from the sidelines, unsure of how to initiate play. This gentle story follows a young boy visiting his grandfather who is slowly coaxed into a world of make-believe by a spirited neighbor girl. Through a shared game of kings and queens, the book beautifully illustrates how imagination acts as a bridge between two people. It validates the feeling of initial shyness while modeling a respectful, patient way to invite someone into a friendship. For parents of preschoolers and early elementary children, it provides a comforting narrative about the magic that happens when we say yes to an invitation to play.
