What is Every little thing about?

A young boy wakes to a day full of small worries. When rain clouds gather, mistakes happen and feelings dip, three cheerful little birds help him see things differently. Through bright scenes, gentle reassurance and a bouncy, song-like rhythm, he learns that difficult moments pass, kindness can mend hurt feelings, and hope is never far away. Adapted from Bob Marley’s “Three Little Birds”, this uplifting picture book celebrates love, peace, friendship and the comforting belief that everything will be all right.
