Ari the antelope sees too many possibilities.

Every path looks open. Every choice feels uncertain. And every step forward seems to close something else behind him.

When the other animals move with confidence, Ari hesitates. He wonders. He reconsiders. And sometimes, by the time he decides, the moment has already passed him by.

But the savannah keeps moving.

And so does Ari.

As the paths begin to change faster than he can follow, Ari starts to believe something is wrong with him - that choosing might always mean losing something important.

Then an unexpected moment leaves Ari facing a decision he can no longer avoid. As he searches for the right path, he begins to discover something surprising about choices, mistakes, and what it really means to move forward.

A gentle early-reader story about overthinking, confidence, and finding the courage to take the next step-perfect for children ages 5-8 and the grown-ups who read with them.
