When children turn the words “I can’t” into “I can,” wonderful changes take place! From the creative minds of Jack Canfield, international expert on self-esteem, goal setting, success and life improvement, and children’s book author Miriam Laundry, comes the delightful but powerful story, I CAN Believe in Myself.
Intended for children 6 to 11 years of age, I CAN Believe in Myself introduces young readers to Molly, who has been chosen to be the next Star of the Day in her school classroom. Most students would be proud and excited. Molly, however, is terrified! She just can't speak in front of her class. She worries all day. She frets all night. "I can't … I can't," Molly convinces herself. Or can she?
I CAN Believe in Myself gently challenges children to turn their negative thoughts into positive ones, seamlessly weaving themes of compassion, confidence and self-esteem into a relatable story about a young girl’s struggle to move beyond her comfort zone. Ultimately, Molly brings something special to show and tell, and uses it to help her fellow students—and even her teacher—overcome negative perceptions so they can have the confidence they need to do things they never thought possible.
Parents and teachers alike will appreciate the lifelong lessons contained in this beautifully illustrated book. I CAN Believe in Myself can help the young people in your life learn to believe in themselves, build self-esteem, and turn the word can't into can!
