Big

When this girl was little, everyone loved her big heart, her big laugh, and her big dreams. When she grew and learned, everyone praised her: "what a big girl you are!" But then suddenly, something changed. Adults start saying "You're a big girl, aren't you?" and "Don't you think you're too big for that?" The words hurt, and so did trying to make herself smaller. It wasn't until she pushed the words away, and made space for herself exactly as she was — a girl, a child, who is creative and compassionate and funny and kind — that she realized she would always be good enough.

The first picture book written and illustrated by award-winning creator Vashti Harrison traces a child’s journey to self-love and shows the power of words to both hurt and heal. With spare text and exquisite illustrations, this emotional exploration of being big in a world that prizes small is a tender portrayal of how you can stand out and feel invisible at the same time.
