Strength. Patience. Grit. Growth.
Seven-year-old Salem thinks she knows everything-until the morning her toast pops up burnt and her whole "I've-got-this" world wobbles. Suddenly, eggs won't crack right, her dirt bike wobbles, and nothing feels as easy as it used to.
Enter her two secret weapons: Grandma TruTru and Great Grandma Marsha.
With gentle wisdom and big love, they show her five simple steps-watch, listen, ask, practice, and try again-that turn everyday mistakes into powerful learning moments.
With every careful crack of an egg, every deep breath, every WHOOSH of a wobbly bike ride, Salem discovers a truth bigger than burnt toast:
She doesn't need to be perfect.
She just needs to be coachable.
And once she learns that?
There's nothing she can't figure out.
Okay, I'll Try is a warm, beautifully illustrated picture book that blends early leadership lessons, growth mindset, and everyday SEL skills into a story every child can see themselves in. Kids learn persistence, emotional regulation, problem-solving, and confidence-building-wrapped inside a fun, relatable story inspired by real moments between two grandmas and their granddaughter.
To keep the learning going, the book includes five hands-on activity pages focused on coachability, gratitude, effort, and reflection-perfect for teachers, counselors, and families.
Uplifting, practical, and full of heart, Okay, I'll Try gives young readers the courage to try again, stay open, and grow into the best version of themselves.
