When Adela gets ready to start kindergarten, she assumes her big brother Dawson will be right beside her. But Dawson learns in a different school and moves through the world at a different pace.
At first, Adela thinks she knows what Dawson can and cannot do, and she tries to teach him how to catch up. But when her efforts do not go as planned, she begins to pay closer attention to who he really is.
What she discovers surprises her.
Dawson is not behind. He is different. And in his own way, he is deeply capable, observant, and wise.
As Adela follows him more closely, she begins to see that he has his own strengths and that he can teach her things if she slows down enough to notice.
This tender story helps young readers understand developmental differences through a sibling's eyes. It shows that value is not measured by speed and that love often grows when we stop trying to change someone and start learning from them instead.
