Now out: What To Do When Mistakes Make You Quake

This book could be just the right one for an adult to share with a child as the new year begins. Learning how to cope with making mistakes is a life skill that will give back so much to kids. The need to be perfect can really hold a child back.

Spending some time with this book will, I think, be helpful to those worried kids. It may just be helpful to some adults as well.

This book is organized as a workbook. There are cartoon like illustrations that make the chapters feel accessible.

Learning that it is okay to make mistakes and that they can even be important to learning is vitally important. I hope that this book will help some kids to not only accept but embrace the ways in which mistakes can lead to growth rather than shame.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Magination Press-the American Psychological Association for this title. All opinions are my own.
