You Can Do It, Curious George!

Reach for this book when your child feels discouraged because they cannot keep up with older siblings or peers in traditional ways. It is perfect for the moment a child says, I am not good at anything, or when they feel like their small size is a disadvantage. In this story, George wants to help with an upcoming race but struggles to find his place among the faster, stronger athletes. Through George's classic trial and error, the story illustrates that every individual has a unique contribution to make. It moves beyond the idea of winning to focus on the value of supporting others and identifying personal strengths. This is a gentle, confidence-boosting read for preschoolers and early elementary students who are just beginning to navigate organized sports and group dynamics.
