Glorious Fails

Some kids fall apart when they fail. This book shows them that failing is where the good stuff starts.

Milo's bookshelf collapses in front of the entire school. Piper loses the art contest she secretly worked on for weeks. Finn's big magic trick flops on stage. Jesse is the new kid - again. None of them knows yet what they're about to discover together: a mistake isn't the end of the story. It's the beginning of a better one.

Glorious Fails is a collection of ten funny, honest, heartfelt short stories about five very different friends and the beautiful disasters that teach them how to be brave, keep trying, ask for help, and grow.

Written for every kid. Unlike the many "stories for girls" and "stories for boys" crowding the shelf, Glorious Fails stars a mixed cast of five kids your child can see themselves in - whoever they are.

Perfect for the child who:

• Gives up the moment something gets hard
• Is terrified of making mistakes or looking "not good enough"
• Needs a little more courage, confidence, or resilience

Built for grown-ups too. Every story ends with a Mindset Message, discussion questions, and a Mini Challenge - making this an ideal read-aloud for families and a ready-made resource for classrooms and counselors.

Great for reading together or alone. Ages 6-10.

Because the bravest thing isn't never failing. It's failing - and getting back up, and trying again. Gloriously.
