"The depictions of difficult situations, such as learning to ride a
bike, learning to dance, or practicing painting, are sure to strike
a chord with children struggling to pick up something new, and the
positive outcomes brought on by practice and perseverance are sure
to inspire readers to never give up. A lovely addition to
picture-book collections."--Booklist
"With splashy artwork and catchy rhymes, the creators give families
and educators a tool that spurs kids on to success."--Publishers
Weekly
"This rhyming, motivational picture book tackles the lesson of
perseverance. It promotes trying new things and letting yourself
fail along the way. With bright colorful, illustrations and an
inspirational message, this 2021 picture book is a great substitute
for Dr. Seuss's popular Oh, the Places You'll Go!"--Bookriot
Praise for The Magical Yet:
"When children are old enough to do things on their own but are
frustrated because they struggle with their nascent abilities, this
enchanting picture book introduces them to their limitless
potential by way of Yet, that oh-so-important word that encourages
them to have patience with themselves as they continue to keep
trying." --Lacey Vorrasi-Banis, Entertainment Weekly
"Oh, I love this one! This is a book about resiliency and how you
might not be good at something... yet. The Magical Yet is by your
side helping you as you learn and grow. The adorable illustrations
feature a diverse group of children, but everyone will be able to
see a little of themselves in this book because of the
topic."--Kathleen Shea-Porter, Buzzfeed
"The artwork is powerful and detailed....A solid if message-driven
conversation starter about the hard parts of learning."--Kirkus
