Abstract
Doubtless You Know tells the story of guanacos, animals who live in the mountains of Chile, a hot, high and dry land where there is little water. We hear their story of surviving and thriving as they share it with a young girl who takes the time to listen. The tale provides many chances to explore concepts that are important to our work with babies and their caregivers from an infant mental health perspective. As you experience the story, you may discover ideas that include the importance of considering multiple perspectives through observing and listening, the idea that we can all help no matter how small, that different kinds of knowing are useful, and that things are very often not as they first seem! We are sure that many of you will find other meanings as you reflect on the story from your own personal perspective
