This empowering picture book celebrates the importance of being you; perfect for fans of I Am Enough and The Wonderful Things You Will Be.
Young children dream about who they’ll be when they grow up—will they be a firefighter, an astronaut, or an artist? But what about being caring, passionate, and creative? Author Nima Patel crafts a thought-provoking story that celebrates self-acceptance and being present. The Best You teaches young readers that what you want to be when you grow up is not always as important as who you are.

Genre:

  • Children's Books
  • Juvenile Fiction
  • Social Themes
  • Self-esteem & Self-reliance

Nima Patel is a former primary school teacher and children’s author, with over 30 years’ experience in early childhood education. Combining her two passions in life: mindfulness and personal development, she has created the brand Mindful Champs, with a mission to provide children with the tools they need for emotional education. 

Cally Johnson-Isaacs has loved to draw ever since she first picked up a crayon. After graduating in Illustration from Newcastle Art College, Cally illustrated greetings cards before becoming a freelance illustrator. She now works from her home studio where she has a lovely view of the Northumberland countryside.
