Reviews

"As a child, I always loved the phrase, if at first you dont succeed, try, try again and that is exactly what this picture book says to me. There are so many suggestions of things you can try in this book, that children are bound to resonate with some of them, and the wonderful pages in the latter half of this book, where they can brainstorm things theyd like to try, is a lovely touch." - Picture Book Perfect Nov 2019
