Let go of expectations—embrace the beautiful, messy, vibrant truth of your child.
When Nancy Manet became a parent, she was told her child should grow like a “tulip in a pot”—neat, safe, predictable. But life had a different plan. This heartwarming and visually stunning children’s book follows one parent's joyful journey of learning to let go and celebrate the growing wildflowers before them.Told in lyrical, affirming couplets and illustrated in rich watercolor and cut-paper collage, You Are Not a Tulip in a Pot encourages parents and caregivers to release rigid expectations and embrace children for who they truly are. This book is an invitation—not a lecture—to listen, to grow, and to love more freely.
Perfect for parents, teachers, and anyone who loves a child who breaks the mold.
- A gentle, affirming message for young children
- Inclusive and emotionally rich story
- Lush, layered illustrations that celebrate freedom and individuality
Each page pairs a quiet expectation with a wild surprise:
- A tea party vs. a mud puddle
- A tricycle vs. a race car
- A purring kitten vs. a mighty tiger
Hand-Cut Watercolor and Paper Collage
Illustrated by Michelle Buvala, each spread bursts with life, utilizing watercolor and cut-paper collage to bring playful movement and joyful mess to the page. Her layered textures and whimsical color choices support the book's affirming message.
Perfect For:
- Parents and caregivers in transition or healing
- Storytimes that can spark real conversation
- Teachers and counselors promoting emotional growth
- Anyone who needs permission to grow outside the lines
