About This Book
Reach for this book when your child expresses frustration with their natural abilities or starts comparing their physical traits to those of their peers. It is a perfect choice for the child who feels their own 'voice' is plain or inadequate compared to others. The story follows Tula the turkey, who is so embarrassed by her gobble that she tries to trade it for the sounds of other farm animals. Through her journey, she discovers that while others' traits may seem more appealing, her own unique sound has a vital purpose that only she can fulfill. This gentle, humorous tale is ideal for children aged 4 to 8, offering a safe space to discuss self-worth, envy, and the importance of individuality. Parents will appreciate how it models the shift from self-criticism to self-appreciation without being overly preachy.
