Great book with growth mindset messaging
This book is hilarious for the parents and so meaningful for the child. I am a school psychologist and I bought this for my 19 month old daughter to help add to our collection of books that encourage a growth mindset and positive thinking. This is fabulous and I’m so happy I purchased it. Will be purchasing “The Girl Who Has A Million Problems” next!

Perfect!
I love this book! My daughter is 5 and she was having a particularly hard week, with behaving. She seemed to have extreme difficulty listening and being kind to others. She was getting very down on herself and it got worse. I tried explaining how people make mistakes and it is okay to do that, but it is all about how you handle it. Being a 5 year old, she had a hard time understanding how you can take a mistake and turn it into something good, and applied correctly a strength. We read this book together and she lit up by the end of it. It really did turn her frown up side down and lift her spirits some. If you have a sweet kiddo like mine who needs a little bit of understanding, then this is a great book!

Great Book for Perfectionists!
Bought this for my daughter who struggles with perfectionism. It’s a cute story that normalizes making mistakes and gives language for kids to relate to when they make their own mistakes.

Normalizes making mistakes and Practice makes everything better
Good book. My daughter also understands that it's okay if you spill milk and toothpaste etc. and she can laugh about it because of this book. It's important to teach girls that it is okay to make mistakes and with practice you can do better. this book covers it very beautifully.
