Booktalk: As a boy goes through his day, he encounters all sorts of people and experiences. He reacts differently depending on the situation. Whether it’s The Manager who takes charge and organizes, The Exile who makes himself small and disappears, or The Firefighter who employs a lot of noise and distractions, each of these “parts” is useful in helping him cope.

Booktalk: When Miles and his friend RJ team up for their school’s bake sale, they embark on a journey filled with sweet treats, friendship, and a dash of science. Miles is confident that Nana’s famous tea cakes will win the prize, but he’s feeling the pressure from RJ, who wants to win the prize money to replace his mom’s treasured keepsake that he accidentally broke. Through baking mishaps and heartfelt moments, they discover that the true recipe for success lies in honesty, teamwork, and adding a special ingredient—love.
