Understanding Me is a heartwarming and magical journey, perfect for curious young readers.
Our main character, a child with a bright backpack and a water bottle, sets out alone on a winding forest trail. But they're not just walking-they're discovering. In their hand is a seemingly ordinary walking stick. This stick is anything but ordinary-it's magic, giving them the power to swap bodies with animals they meet along the path.
From buzzing like a bee to soaring high like an eagle, our traveler experiences the world through each transformation, revealing something special about the emotions, instincts, and connections that unite all living things.
With gentle wisdom and rich imagination, Understanding Me explores empathy, identity, and our relationship with the world around us. It's a story for every child who's ever wondered what it's like to be someone-or something-else.
Perfect for nature lovers, big-hearted dreamers, and anyone who sees magic in the world around them.
Susan Souza is a writer and author of children's picture books, memoir and nonfiction. She is also a singer, songwriter, musician, and crafter-a lover of life and an unapologetic nonconformist whose voice carries both grit and tenderness. She delights in chasing new horizons, celebrating her quirks, and wearing her childlike spirit as a badge of joy.
Rooted in the charm of the Northeast, she makes her home in a small Southcoast lake community, where her backyard welcomes a lively parade of squirrels, birds, ducks, rabbits, and the occasional turtle. Sharing her home are female felines: Scully, a playful and wise black beauty, and LucyLu, a mischievous, lovable tortoiseshell with lots of tortitude. Together, they are her muses, companions, and co-conspirators in living life playfully and truthfully.
