Edmund, a ball of yarn, explores the world while safely tethered to his family and home. His parents encourage his "joy of discovery" but dislike reeling him back in (literally), which becomes more difficult as he grows. Illustrated with digitally altered pencil drawings bursting with gags and color, the funny metaphor about leaving the nest will tickle both children and caregivers.
