An uplifting, poetic picture book about the unique experiences and opportunities that children raised as boys will encounterin this ever-changing, conformist, highly pressurised world. A star-scattered night, a brand new baby, and all the potential in the world… dazzling possibilities await him. A beautiful and poignant message is at the heart of this book: whatever is expected of you, you can be whoever you want to be. The companion book to Dreams for our Daughters, this is a truly stunning gift for children and parents at any key life moment, from birth to graduation.
A phenomenally well written ode to the softness of boyhood. In a world where there is intense pressure to be “tough” and “strong”, this book reminds little ones that strength comes from within and promotes communication and recognition of emotion in young boys. I have been reading it to my 7 month old son and he enjoys the lyrical flow of the words - I hope he grows to understand the symbolic nature of the text, in time.
