About This Book
Reach for this book when you notice your child is becoming irritable or exhausted from a packed schedule of sports, school, and social commitments. Lola Levine is a vibrant, active protagonist who takes pride in her 'super soccer' skills and her busy life, but she soon discovers that even a powerhouse like her has limits. This story provides a gentle mirror for children who feel they must excel at everything, helping them recognize the physical and emotional signs of burnout. Through Lola's experiences, the book models the healthy habit of 'recharging' and shows that resting is not a sign of failure, but a necessary part of a balanced life. It is particularly effective for elementary-aged children who are transitioning into more competitive activities. Parents will appreciate how it validates their child's ambition while teaching the vital lesson of self-care and boundary-setting within a supportive family context.
