Kinu Feels Left Out

By Peter Weiser

Kinu Feels Left Out

A gentle story about friendship, courage, and finding the confidence to join in.

Kinu is excited to spend the day at the playground. There are sandcastles to build, games to play, and children having fun everywhere she looks.

But every time Kinu finds something she would like to join, she hangs back and watches instead.

Before long, she starts to feel as though nobody wants to play with her.

Then she meets Mina, a friendly little ermine with a red ball and a question that makes Kinu see the whole day differently.

Maybe being left out is not always what it seems. And maybe making a new friend can begin with one small, brave step.

With warm illustrations and a familiar childhood situation, Kinu Feels Left Out is a reassuring picture book about friendship, shyness, misunderstandings, and learning to speak up.

Perfect for ages 3-6, preschoolers, and young children learning how to navigate friendships and big feelings.
