How to use at home
Pause throughout the story and ask, "What makes Sollie special?" Then invite your child to share something they like about themselves or something they are learning to do well.
Why this is Roost approved
Many children notice their differences before they recognise their strengths. We love that Sollie's journey encourages children to see value in who they are and reminds them that confidence often grows through action rather than praise alone. It's a lovely starting point for conversations about self-worth, belonging and resilience.
