Reach for this book when your child is frustrated by a new skill or feels like they just cannot get a lesson to stick. Whether it is learning to tie shoes, memorizing a song, or following directions, this story is for the child who needs to realize that true learning happens when we connect information to our own unique experiences. It is a gentle remedy for the 'I can't do it' blues. In this rhythmic tale, a persistent Bear tries desperately to copy Lizard's song, only to forget the words every time he walks away. Through trial, error, and a bit of frustration, Bear eventually learns that he cannot just mimic someone else's joy. He must find the song that belongs to his own home. It is a wonderful tool for building self-confidence and resilience in children ages 4 to 8, teaching them that their own perspective is their greatest asset.
