OverviewThe story follows Otto, a perceptive child who feels disconnected from his peers' obsession with electronic devices. His compassion leads him to rescue a beetle, who in turn gifts him a magic seed with the power to grant four wishes. While Otto uses some wishes for personal fantasy (a treehouse, a talking dog), his ultimate wish is empathetic and community-minded: he wishes for the other children to see the natural world with the same wonder he does. This book serves as a fantastic conversation starter for classrooms and libraries, with built-in discussion questions that encourage children to ponder their relationship with technology, articulate what they discover in nature, and explore the limits of their own imaginations. It's a powerful tool for promoting social-emotional learning (SEL), highlighting the rewards of kindness, the value of being different, and the transformative power of unplugging and engaging with the real world.
