Socrates and the Impossible Question

In this heartwarming children's picture book, a troubled little girl meets Socrates the cat who guides her on a delightful walk through their charming village. As they stroll along cobblestone streets they meet various people with different jobs and professions. From the artist painting a picture, to the baker kneading dough, to the gardener tending vegetables, the little girl observes each person's work with fascination and they even lend a hand here and there.

As the day goes on, she realises that every job is important and meaningful in its own way, but she doesn't need to decide just yet. Her journey is about exploring possibilities and understanding that she has time to find her own path. Socrates the cat enjoys every moment of their adventure without worrying about finding the final answer and knows that Lily will come to her own conclusion. The story beautifully illustrates the joy of discovery, the value of curiosity, and the idea that each person's path is unique.

This encouraging book will charm all ages, but especially ages 4 to 8 and early readers.
