About this book
Tomorrow, Zoe’s class will share their work—and tonight, she cannot stop wondering what might go wrong. What if her picture is not good enough? What if she forgets her words?
Kai listens, stays beside her, and reminds her that she can take one small step while worry is still there. At school, a trusted teacher helps Zoe notice what she is feeling, breathe slowly, and choose a helpful thought.
This picture book follows the sisters through the worry that can come with trying something new or speaking in front of others. When Kai faces a worried moment of her own, Zoe has something to share, too.
Read it together to talk about body signals, mistakes, asking for support, and finding a manageable next step. The story gives children and adults simple language to return to: notice the worry, breathe slowly, and choose a helpful thought.
