Lola And The Magic Of Mistakes (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781068489518)

What if your child saw mistakes as magic instead of failures?

In a world where kids face constant pressure to be perfect, Lola and the Magic of Mistakes offers something revolutionary: permission to mess up, try again, and discover that mistakes are actually superpowers in disguise. Lola starts her day bursting with big dreams and boundless energy. She's ready to conquer the world! But when things don't go as planned, and they never quite do. She faces a choice every child knows too well: give up or keep going?

Here's where the magic happens.

With her loving mum's wisdom, dad's encouragement, and her little sister's infectious joy, Lola discovers a life-changing secret: every "oops" is actually an opportunity. Every stumble?
