About this book
There are some things most of us can do straight away, like breathing and blinking. Everything else we have to learn! Luckily our brains are brilliant at helping us get really good at doing things. And the best way to learn is by having a go!
Most things take a little practise, but the more time we spend doing them, the better we become. The most important thing is to keep trying and NEVER GIVE UP!
As parents it can be hard to stand back and allow our children to take their time, try things, make mistakes and have another go, but most children are determined to succeed - whether it’s brushing their own teeth, doing up their own coat, or riding a scooter. The best thing we can do as adults is give them the time and space to practise.
I wonder which things YOU can do BY YOURSELF?
With a diverse cast of characters, every child will find someone like themselves in this uplifting story!
