The Big Splash
One complete keepsake story, illustrated on every spread: Noa waits out the rain, stops at the edge of a puddle deep as a little lake, takes one deep breath and the biggest jump of her life — and then rides that brave feeling all day long, down the tall slide, through one crunchy taste of something new and green, and past the booming thunder she counts down to size in Daddy's arms. The story closes with a Cuddle-Up Corner, gentle questions to talk about together, and one tiny real-world challenge to try — the warm read-aloud that helps the lesson settle in, night after night.
“Brave is just one big jump — and then the splash.”
Noa is 6 in this story. A joyful, curly-haired six-year-old who loves a rainy day — as long as the puddles aren't too deep. When you make it yours, the hero becomes your child — same name, same face, same big heart — illustrated to look just like them on every single page.
