About this item
A playful, reassuring story about big expectations, self-talk, and emotional resilience
Taco tries his best to keep it all together, but being a taco comes with a lot of pressure. Tacos are expected to stay strong without much support, stay open without much room, and never fall apart. As these expectations pile up, Taco starts to doubt himself. What if he can’t do it? What if he fails? When unhelpful thoughts take over, Taco’s shell cracks, his toppings tumble, and Taco falls apart.
