The first picture book from Fanny & Alexander, Hiccup Makes a Leap depicts the absurd, endearing journey of a hapless hiccup who decides he needs a career change. ... He simply can't understand why peers like Sneeze and Giggle are welcome wherever they go, while people try to scare him away whenever he makes an appearance.
A warm, funny, about picking yourself up, putting yourself out there, and making your invaluable, idiosyncratic contribution to the world from the makers of The Nature of Play.
All Hiccup wants is to be appreciated. His friends are embarrassed by him, strangers try to scare him away
– so Hiccup decides to prove his worth by finding a job.
But – HIC! – he just can’t seem to stop causing chaos. Can Hiccup ever stop erupting long enough to find his place in the world?
– A fable for modern times, gently – and humorously – reminding children of their innate value.
– Supports development of positive emotional qualities of tenacity, confidence and self-worth.
– Models skills of positive self-talk for children.
Great for Children ages 3 thru 8.
