About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling the weight of others' expectations or is struggling to assert their own creative vision. In this story, Riley constructs a paper airplane only to be bombarded by various birds offering conflicting, unsolicited advice on how to make it fly better. This charming tale addresses the delicate balance between listening to others and trusting one's own internal compass. Perfect for preschoolers and early elementary students, it models how to politely filter out 'helpful' noise to discover what truly works for you. It is a wonderful tool for building self-confidence and teaching the value of trial and error in the creative process.
