About this listen

 By the influential relationship therapist and bestselling author of Set Boundaries, Find Peace, this story will help young kids learn to express their own needs rather than people-pleasing.

Avery loves to make people happy—so much so that she often ignores her own wants and needs. If a friend's favorite color is yellow, she always gives that friend the yellow marker. If someone wants PB&J for lunch, she gives up her own sandwich.

Now, her birthday is coming up and she's having trouble deciding what to do for her party. She knows her friends would love going to an amusement park, so maybe she should ignore the fact that the rides make her feel sick. Her brother loves superheroes, so she's considering having a superhero party. Luckily, her friends help her realize it's OK to do what makes you happy—especially on your own special day. Her birthday party is her best one yet! Birthdays Growing Up & Facts of Life Holidays & Celebrations Literature & Fiction Superhero Happiness Fantasy

Critic reviews

"Bradley’s generous use of pastels softens the turmoil that Avery faces while also employing fuzzy-edged thought bubbles to highlight her introspection. Gentle guidance for kids seeking to stay true to themselves." —Kirkus

"Cast in soothing shades, Bradley’s airbrush-like digital renderings faithfully match the text, while Glover Tawwab reiteratively conveys the story’s message: 'Thinking about others is kind, and so is thinking about yourself.'" —Publishers Weekly
