Abstract
Does your child feel able to do things? Hopefully the answer is yes, but even the most independent children need reminders sometimes. Kids are quite capable when given the chance to do things for themselves, but at the same time, it?s normal to doubt themselves and to wonder if they will be able to do things that seem hard. Emotions are tricky and hard to manage when you are small which is why kids need our help. This book equips children with the necessary skills to realize that they can push through their self-doubt and do difficult things because they are brave and strong.
