The Question

The Question is an uplifting and inspiring children’s book that turns a familiar idea on its head. For generations, kids have been asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” This story invites a new question: “How will I be when I grow up?” With rhythmic stanzas and joyful illustrations, The Question encourages children—and the adults in their lives—to think beyond careers and traditional expectations. Instead, it highlights qualities that matter most: kindness, gratitude, resilience, and a curious spirit.

More than just a bedtime story, The Question is a gentle yet powerful reminder that life is not only about achieving—it’s about being. A valuable resource for parents, teachers, and caregivers, this book nurtures a love of reading while helping young minds imagine not just what they’ll become, but who they’ll be.
