Kingsten and the Pressures: Growing at Your Own Pace, (Paperback)

<p>Kingsten is in fifth grade, and something feels different.</p><p>Around him, classmates are growing taller, sounding older, and moving forward in ways that seem sudden and uneven. Some changes are easy to see. Others are quieter, happening on the inside. Kingsten isn't sure where he fits anymore, only that he feels caught somewhere in between.</p><p>In <i>Growing at Your Own Pace</i>, Kingsten navigates a season of change with the help of close friends, honest conversations, and the steady guidance of family members who remind him that growth doesn't follow a single path. From school hallways and classrooms to front porches and kitchen tables, Kingsten begins to understand that becoming yourself takes time-and that comparison only makes the journey harder.</p><p>Written with care and emotional honesty, this story gently explores growing up without rushing it. It reassures readers that there is no correct timeline for change and that belonging doesn't depend on keeping up.</p><p><i>Growing at Your Own Pace</i> is a thoughtful, reassuring middle-grade story for children who are learning that growing up isn't a race-it's a process.</p>
