"When your mind gets all tangled with too many thoughts, the best thing to do is shake loose the knots!"
Billy's mind is buzzing-filled with all sorts of tangled-up thoughts about what he "should" do. Should he chase after soccer balls even though he'd rather pass? Should he comb his hair neatly because someone else says he should? Should he eat "normal" lunches, even though he loves his bug-friendly snacks?
One magical day, with a twirl and a whirl, Billy and his sister, Mary (aka Bear) dive headfirst into an adventure to clear Billy's cluttered mind. With giggles and jiggles, hops and shakes, Bear helps Billy unpack a messy heap of confusing "shoulds."
A soccer ball he doesn't want to chase?
Crayons, cups, and clowns that make no sense?
A comb that has no business being near his hair?
Together, they sift through the pile, sorting through expectations, worries, and pressures-one hilarious and heartwarming moment at a time. Billy discovers the magical power of keeping only the "shoulds" that truly reflect his own heart, dreams, and quirks.
From overwhelmed to inspired, join Billy as he learns to:
Never hide what you love from what others think.
With playful rhymes, whimsical illustrations, and a gentle message about the power of authenticity, The Should Sorter encourages young readers (and their grown-ups!) to free themselves from unnecessary expectations and bravely become exactly who they're meant to be.
Perfect for fans of "The Day the Crayons Quit," "Giraffes Can't Dance," and "The Wonderful Things You Will Be." This magical story makes a thoughtful, empowering gift for birthdays, bedtime stories, classroom read-alouds, and helping kids navigate life's "shoulds" and "coulds."
