GIVES YOUNG READERS THE POWER OF CHOICE: Where do you want to take the story next? Choice and autonomy are essential concepts for children to learn at a young age, and this pick-your-own-adventure picture book puts the decision-making power right in their hands, inviting them to pick and choose—and choose again!
