A celebration of a child's growing self awareness, and a prime example of how books can contribute to this. Whether brave or shy, strong or weak, in the end, the young boy celebrates all different and apparently contradictory parts of himself.

It's a song.
This is not a story, just a song with a steady picture.
Unfortunately, I bought it before sampling.
My little one loved Napping House so much. I figured little one would enjoy this one and the illustrations, too. I was quite wrong.
