Follow Tali in this heartening tale where children are encouraged to face their fears and embrace bravery with wide-spread wings.

"Validates children's fears before gently encouraging them to face them." --Foreword Reviews

"This book is a reminder that if we pay attention, we can find something or someone to teach us how we can step out of the fear and into power." --Dr. Rayna Savrosa, L.Ac, DACM Moonshadow Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine, San Francisco, CA

Tali longs to play like the other kids as they tumble and swing at the park, the gymnastics studio, and the aikido dojo, but her fears hold her back. In her dreams, she can soar, but when she wakes up in the morning, she's still scared. Until one night, a surprise guest flies into her dreams and teaches her how to make them a reality.

Filled with beautiful, evocative illustrations and honest prose, Tali and the Toucan is for any child (or parent) whose worries keep them from living their dreams--whether that's trying a new sport, making a new friend, or climbing to the top of the jungle gym.
