About This Book

A small skyscraper watches as taller, newer buildings rise all around him and feels like he’s lost his sparkle. But when an old friend helps him remember his special place in the city, he realizes being unique isn’t about size or shine. This gentle story celebrates friendship and finding value in who you are.
