Excellent children’s book on perseverance!
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
This is the seventh story about little Nick in the “World of Kids’ Emotions” series by author Elizabeth Cole.
I have read all the books in this series and have shared them with my young grandson over the years. Emotions can be difficult for boys and girls too!
I like how in this story Nick is trying rollerskating! He’s not doing very well and gets discouraged. Fortunately, his father offers some encouragement to persevere and keep at it!
His mother tried baking cakes. At first she did not do a good job, but later mastered the skill of baking cakes. Other examples are used throughout the book to show that trying to do your best and having a goal are great ways to approach persevering!
“Perseverance makes me stronger.” I love the positive messages that are in this book. Positive self talk and encouraging oneself are helpful tools. “No matter the outcome, at least I did try!” ”My dreams will come true because I believe in myself.”
There are some positive affirmations at the end of the book. And also a free coloring page that can be downloaded with a scan code.
The illustrations are very nice to look at and colorful. The artist did a lovely job. The illustrations go along with the storyline nicely.
The writing in this book has a pleasant flow with lots of rhyming words. “Perseverance means not quitting right away, but keep trying more and more, day after day.”

Never Give Up
Format: Kindle
This is a wonderful story, told in rhyme, by Elizabeth Cole. It’s about a boy named Nick who who falls the first time he tries his new skates. Dad and Mom share their own experiences and how they didn’t give up trying new endeavors. Eventually, Nick finds success after following his parents’s advice with gaining confidence along the way. He realizes that persevering had made him a stronger person.
Ms. Cole’s book is a must have in any teacher’s classroom library and used to create thoughtful discussions about never giving up. The illustrations are visually pleasing which will engage children. This book receives my highest recommendation.

Empowering Lessons for Young Minds
Format: Kindle
Perseverance Makes Me Stronger is a fantastic resource for children ages 3 to 8, skillfully addressing essential themes of self-confidence, emotional resilience, and growth mindset. This book is beautifully illustrated and written in a way that is engaging for young readers, making complex emotional concepts accessible and relatable.
The narrative introduces children to the idea that setbacks and frustrations are a natural part of life, emphasizing the importance of perseverance and self-belief. It encourages kids to embrace challenges rather than shy away from them, fostering a positive attitude toward personal growth. The examples and scenarios presented are relevant to everyday experiences that children might face, making it easy for them to connect with the characters and messages.
One of the standout features of this book is its interactive approach. The prompts and questions encourage discussions between parents and children, making it a wonderful tool for teaching emotional intelligence in a collaborative manner. This dialogue fosters a supportive environment where kids can express their feelings and learn to manage them effectively.
However, while the book delivers valuable lessons, some sections feel slightly repetitive, which may lead to a loss of engagement for more advanced readers. Additionally, a bit more variety in the examples could enhance relatability for a broader audience.
Overall, Perseverance Makes Me Stronger is a well-crafted and impactful book that provides young children with essential tools to navigate their emotions and build self-esteem. It’s a great addition to any home or classroom library and serves as a meaningful starting point for conversations about resilience and personal growth. Highly recommended for parents and educators alike!
