About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler is beginning to navigate the high stakes of playground play or organized activities where the desire to win often clashes with the needs of others. It is the perfect tool for helping a little one understand that while the 'go, go, go' of a race is thrilling, stopping to help a friend who has fallen is the ultimate victory. Through the story of Ada and her animal friends on scooters, the book models how to balance personal goals with group empathy. It is an ideal choice for the child who is prone to frustration after a stumble or the child who needs a gentle nudge toward noticing the feelings of their peers. The simple text and bold visuals make it accessible for the youngest readers, turning a common childhood mishap into a powerful lesson on community and kindness.
