Reseña del editor:
This playful book captures just how tough life can be when youre little. With little legs, its hard to win races. With little hands, you cant open the cookie jar. And when you have a little mouth, nobody listens to you. Sometimes it seems like all your problems would be solved if you were just a little bigger. But sometimes, little is exactly the right size.
Featuring delightful artwork and a relatable message, Jonathan Bentleys book will resonate with readers both big and little.
