Reach for this book when your child is facing a moment of acute social anxiety or feels mortified by a choice you have made for them. Whether it is a haircut they hate or an outfit they find embarrassing, Zorro's predicament mirrors the very real sting of feeling ridiculous in front of peers. It is an ideal choice for normalizing the 'I want to hide' feeling while providing a gentle, humorous way to laugh through the discomfort. The story follows a pug named Zorro whose owner dresses him in a flashy superhero costume complete with a cape and mask. Goodrich uses expressive watercolors to capture Zorro's plummeting self-esteem as he navigates the world feeling exposed and silly. Geared toward children ages 4 to 8, this book is a fantastic tool for opening conversations about self-consciousness, the value of true friendship, and finding the courage to be oneself even when you feel like a 'fancy-schmancy' spectacle.
