The "What If" book series helps children explore this concept. The first half of each book explores vivid dreams of something better. The second half teaches that the greener grass always comes with its own challenges. The journeys of exploration, imagination, and learning serve as a reminder that being happy for what you have is a powerful approach to life.
In What if I Could Fly? a young boy imagines what it would be like to fly all over his neighborhood. He could help people! He could explore the world! All while being back home every night.
But would it make his life better or just different?
