It’s not always easy to stand out - but being yourself is the bravest thing of all. Tom Percival delivers another heartwarming and empowering story in his Big Bright Feelings series, celebrating individuality, courage, and self-acceptance.
Norman has always been perfectly normal - until one day, he grows a pair of wings! At first, it’s thrilling. He can soar, swoop, and fly! But soon, worry takes hold. What will people think? Trying to hide his wings under a big, heavy coat makes him feel safe… but also uncomfortable and sad.
With gentle humour and emotional honesty, Norman learns that hiding who you are only holds you down, and that true happiness comes from letting yourself fly free. With its stunning illustrations and relatable message, PERFECTLY NORMAN helps children embrace what makes them unique and encourages open conversations about self-image, confidence, and belonging.
Perfect for ages 3–8, classrooms, and families who want to help children build confidence, kindness, and emotional awareness.
