About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is on the verge of a 'perfectionist meltdown' or feeling like they will never be as capable as their older siblings or peers. It addresses the specific frustration of the 'learning gap,' that uncomfortable space between wanting to do something and actually having the skill to finish it. The story follows a young boy who feels small and incompetent until a friendly Yeti teaches him a linguistic trick: adding the word 'yet' to the end of every 'I can't' statement. Through a playful cast of legendary monsters like Sasquatch and the Abominable Snow Monster, the book reframes mastery as a journey rather than a fixed trait. It is a perfect tool for children aged 3 to 7 who struggle with perseverance, providing a catchy, internal mantra they can use during soccer practice, homework, or morning routines. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's frustration while offering a concrete psychological strategy to build resilience.
