I Can Do It (Mindful Mantras)

This is an excellent book that teaches children how to manage various emotions and teaches them to be confident in handling different situations. I love the repetition of the themes applied to different emotions and situations and how each scenario ends with “I can handle it.” It was very realistic. I could see my own child’s behavior. Definitely one I will read to him. Great work!

Self-confidence—or the lack thereof—is a big issue for a lot of people, no matter the age. Laurie's book suggests our that self-confidence is a choice. When we're feeling frustrating, thinking we can't do something, we have options. Some of those options are helpful, and some are not so helpful. 𝘐 𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘋𝘰 𝘐𝘵 encourages us to consider our options and choose the the ones that are most helpful in accomplishing what we need or want to do.

Students loved it! Even tried it with an older student who changed their mind about doing something!Great resource to have on hand for children.

My 3 years old loves this book

When I love a book that my kids love, too, it's always a win-win for me! And Laurie Wright's books always are a win-win. This one is brilliant and helps us discuss different situations where we might feel frustrated, or stubborn, or nervous, or even sad. I love how Laurie offers multiple solutions to each situation. It's such a great conversation starter.

I read this with my 5year old and he really enjoyed it. It was a great vehicle for talking about the things that upset or frustrate him and how he can handle his feelings.

I understand why negative examples were included along with the positive ones, but this has to be so carefully done with little ones. Ultimately, I decided not to give my son this book after looking through it. I feel it would put negative ideas in his mind that are not currently an issue for him. I wish it would have went into less detail on the negative.

Rosalba Aguilera-Longoria, AmftI choose this rating because it was an easy read..gets to the point and nice pictures for children to understand and tell their own story.I would recommend this book to colleagues to use with their clients and for parents to read with their children.

This is one of my kids' favorite books. They request this book a lot. Its got bright illustrations, and its easy to follow.

Un libro adorabile che incoraggia i bambini a tentare di superare le loro paure e dichiararsi i vincitori alla fine. Una grande lezione per i più piccoli!

This is a lovely book that, as it is a Mantra book, repeats the valuable and positive take home message "I can do it!" several times until even the youngest reader is able to remember and internalise it. The main character, Jenn, is confronted with several challenging situations that are more than familiar to every child: sharing toys, learning new things, or getting dressed. While it's easy to choose one of the two "not so nice" responses, the author presents a more positive option followed by the mantra mentioned above. As a side note, the illustrations are absolutely adorable and made use giggle several times. Overall a great book. Highly recommended.

Another beautiful book in the mindful mantra series. I love how the writer has chosen simple yet empowering words to put across complex feelings.
