Little Naomi, Little Chick

Reach for this book when your toddler is struggling with the transition between daily activities or needs help visualizing the structure of their day. It is an ideal choice for children who find comfort in repetition and for parents who want to foster a sense of independence and self-care in their little ones. The story uses a clever parallel structure to show how a young girl named Naomi and a fluffy baby chick follow nearly identical routines. From waking up and eating to playing and eventually settling down for sleep, the book mirrors a child's world with warmth and humor. It highlights emotional themes of joy and curiosity while grounding them in the familiar rhythm of home life. At its core, it celebrates the 'big kid' milestones of a preschooler by comparing them to the natural instincts of an animal friend, making the mundane moments of hygiene and mealtime feel like an exciting adventure.
