Sometimes journey starts in a slightly crooked way.
Benjamin is a young boy who sometimes feels overwhelmed by the expectation that everything has to be just right. Then, during a trip to the grocery store, he discovers something unexpected: a little piece of bread that doesn't look quite like all the others.
The crooked slice is made from the same ingredients as every other piece of bread. It simply doesn't match.
When Benjamin chooses the crooked slice, an unusual friendship begins, and Benjamin discovers that being different doesn't mean being less.
Benjamin and the Crooked Slice is a warm illustrated story about acceptance, belonging, perseverance, and learning that you don't have to be perfect to have value.
