About this book
Future Possibilities Week fills the classroom with big ideas. Zoe’s page is blank. Kai has ideas of her own, but wonders whether her dreams are too big for her.
With encouragement from their older sister, Nia, Kai and Zoe explore four steps: Notice, Imagine, Learn, and Begin. They look at what they enjoy, the problems they care about, and the people they can learn from. A school project gives them a chance to listen, test an idea, and keep improving when the first attempt needs work.
Read together to talk about uncertainty, interests, asking for support, and beginning before you have every answer. The closing “Your Turn” pages invite children to draw or write about their interests, imagine possibilities, prepare questions for someone they could learn from, and choose a manageable next step.
“My Why Not Me? Plan” and “A Promise to Myself” bring those reflections together.
