About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels stifled by the rigid expectations of school or the grayness of a repetitive daily routine. It is a visual sanctuary for the dreamer who feels out of place in a busy, urban world and needs to be reminded that their inner world is a valid and beautiful destination. Through wordless, vibrant collage art, the story follows a young girl who discovers a blue book that transports her from a drab city to a lush, magical forest on the back of a magnificent blue horse. Because there are no words, this book allows your child to be the storyteller, which builds confidence and emotional literacy. It is a perfect choice for encouraging quiet reflection, fostering a love for the arts, and validating the power of a child's own imagination to transform their surroundings. It serves as both a comfort for the restless soul and a spark for the creative mind, ideal for children ages 4 to 8.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and metaphorical. It touches on feelings of isolation or 'urban gloom,' but the resolution is hopeful and empowering. There are no traditional 'scary' elements, though the transition from the real world to the dream world is profound.
