Description

Kate tries everyone else's hobby in hopes of finding one that she will like.

Quick Summary

Kate's quest to try out everyone else's hobby is both funny and relatable, especially for kids who feel pressure to have a "thing" like soccer, art, or music. The story is short enough for early readers but packed with kid-friendly humor and a warm message about discovering what truly fits you. Parents will appreciate that the book doesn't shy away from the frustration of trying something new, and it subtly teaches perseverance without being preachy. If your child enjoys the playful tone of books like *I Want My Hat Back* or *The Bad Guys*, they'll likely love this quick, easy-to-follow tale. With an AR level of 2.1 and only half a point, it's a great confidence-building read for first and second graders who want a satisfying finish.
