Last to hatch, little Julian is behind in everything. His mother assures him that he is wonderful just the way he is, but he longs to catch up to his peacock brothers. In this uplifting story about a late-bloomer, Julian learns that he, too, has what it takes to bloom! This beautifully illustrated picture book was written for children ages 1-8 years old. The story addresses SEL topics, such as self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship skills, which makes it a perfect fit for preschool and elementary classrooms.
