Now in a stunning deluxe keepsake edition with an exclusive illustrated slipcase, What the Road Said is a New York Times-bestselling picture book about courage, kindness and finding your way by poet and activist Cleo Wade.

Which way do I go?
That is your choice to make,
said the Road.

But what if I go the wrong way?
The Road curved a little,
almost as if it was giving me a hug, and said,
Do not worry. Sometimes we go the wrong way on our
way to the right way.

It's okay to be afraid or to sometimes wander down the wrong path. Bestselling poet and activist Cleo Wade's What the Road Said features illustrations by Lucie de Moyencourt and encourages us to lead with kindness and curiosity, remembering that the most important thing we can do in life is to keep going.

This special keepsake edition is a fantastic gift, perfect for both displaying on your shelf and reading every night.
