A world of twirls is waiting... even for a tiny tail.
In a quiet pond beside a farmhouse old, lived a tiny tadpole named Toeki. She's shiny, she's black, and she has a dream as big as the sky: she wants to be a ballerina.
While her friend Bani leaps and twirls on the shore in a purple tutu, Toeki can only swish her tail. She wonders: Will I ever be beautiful? Will I ever dance too?
But as the seasons turn from golden autumn to snowy winter, Toeki discovers a secret. Beauty doesn't just happen-it grows. It takes time, heart, and a whole lot of patience.
Why readers will love Toeki:
- A Lesson in Patience: A gentle way to teach children that good things take time.
- Rhythmic Read-Aloud: Perfect for bedtime with a soothing, melodic cadence.
- Stunning Illustrations: Follow Toeki's journey from a tiny coal-black tadpole to a beautiful blue spotted frog.
- Empowering Message: A reminder that everyone has a light deep within that will shine when the time is right.
