But when the big day arrives and Otto doesnt pop, he feels left behind and unsure of his purpose. As Otto returns to his jar, feeling alone and defeated, a surprising scent leads him to an unexpected realization: he doesnt need to pop to achieve his dreams.Brought to life by award-winning author and illustrator duo Kilpatrick and Blanco, this is one of those empowering self confidence books for kids that uses vibrant illustrations and a quirky narrative to teach children that its okay to stand out. Perfect for ages 3 and up, these read-aloud back to school books support social-emotional learning (SEL) by encouraging kids to embrace differences, diversity, build self-confidence, and overcome setbacks.
