Not So Small

New York Times bestselling author Pat Zietlow Miller and celebrated artist Paola Escobar team up for a picture book with an empowering message: No matter your size, you can do big things.

A small voice can travel for miles.

Showing kindness.

Hope.

And love.

On their own, kids might feel like they can’t make meaningful change. After all, what can one small person do? But what this joyful book imparts is that when we join together, we become something bigger—an unstoppable force. Each and every one of us can use our voice!
