-Encourages kids to make observations in nature.
-Lessons from nature related to our own lives and made easier for children to understand, such as being ourselves, doing your best, accepting change, etc.
-Lovely, vibrant illustrations.
-Seems like a great book for early elementary kids who are just learning to navigate the social intricacies of society and discovering themselves.
