You want a child who can name what they feel, stand up to their fears, and find their balance. Little Steps is a story written to nurture exactly that—emotional learning woven into a timeless Egyptian fairy tale.
Set in the mystical age of Pharaoh Hatshepsut, it follows Little Steps, a ten-year-old Egyptian boy haunted by the fear of failing. To grow braver, he learns to live up to his name — moving forward with small, purposeful steps. His quest: to journey up and down the Nile and reunite three sacred symbols, each one a lesson in what it means to be whole.
Along the way, children discover a quiet kind of courage: that naming a feeling and choosing what to do with it is an act of bravery in itself. It's emotional learning that stays with them long after the last page.
Little Steps doesn't travel alone. He's joined by three unforgettable companions — Red Brick, a giant from Thebes; Axiom, a centaur and master of nonsense; and Lapis, a young vulture just learning to fly — in a coming-of-age adventure through ancient Egypt.
And it's told in a way you've likely never seen: written entirely in haiku, the Japanese 5-7-5 verse. Every line is spare, vivid, and easy to remember — turning story time into something calm and mindful, perfect for bedtime or the classroom.
Perfect for families who love:
Ancient Egyptian myth and history — Pharaoh Hatshepsut, Nile journeys, sacred symbols Poetry that tells a story, making reading mindful and memorable Diverse, multicultural heroes on journeys of self-discovery Whole-child wellbeing — body, mind, and emotions in balance Beautifully illustrated stories, with art by Lorra LeyRecommended for ages 8–12 and intermediate readers — and a firm favourite for homeschool and the classroom.
