Francis Discovers Possible is a lyrical picture book from Tony Award-winning producer Ashlee Latimer and award-winning illustrator Shahrzad Maydani that models joyful self-acceptance. Francis loves learning new words. At school, when her class is reviewing words that begin with the letter "F," someone sneers "Fat, like Francis." Francis always thought "fat" was a warm word--like snuggling with Mama or belly rubs for her puppy. But now "fat" feels cold, and Francis feels very small. After school, Baba takes Francis to the park. She chooses the bench instead of the swing set and gets very quiet. But when Baba uses the word "possible," Francis wants to know what it means.
