Produktbeschreibung

Follow Tali in this heartening tale where children are encouraged to face their fears and embrace bravery with wide-spread wings. Tali longs to play like the other kids as they tumble and swing at the park, the gymnastics studio, and the aikido dojo, but her fears hold her back. In her dreams, she can soar, but when she wakes up in the morning, she's still scared. Until one night, a surprise guest flies into her dreams and teaches her how to make them a reality. Filled with beautiful, evocative illustrations and honest prose, Tali and the Toucan is for any child (or parent) whose worries keep them from living their dreamswhether that's trying a new sport, making a new friend, or climbing to the top of the jungle gym.
