Sourcebooks Jabberwocky The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes

The book tries to teach kids that it is ok to fail and make mistakes and be silly. It’s good if you your kids is afraid to try new things

Great moral

I did not like the story because it let children with the idea that being silly is the same as making mistakes. I consider it a superficial book, it only helps with the introduction of the theme.

I got this book for my daughter, and we both absolutely loved it. The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes tells the story of Beatrice, a little girl who’s known for always doing everything perfectly until she finally makes a mistake in front of everyone and realizes it’s completely okay. It’s such a simple but powerful message, especially for kids who put a lot of pressure on themselves. The writing is funny and engaging, and it really held my daughter’s attention. The illustrations are colorful and full of expression we found ourselves pointing out the little details on every page. After reading it, we had a great conversation about how everyone makes mistakes and that it’s how we learn and grow. I think this book is perfect for ages 4–8, especially for kids who tend to get frustrated when things don’t go perfectly the first time. It’s also a great resource for teachers or parents who want to talk about growth mindset or resilience in a gentle, relatable way. Pros: • Positive message about embracing mistakes • Bright, fun illustrations that kids love • Great conversation starter for emotional growth • Perfect for home or classroom reading Cons: • A bit short — my daughter wanted more! Overall, this is a sweet, uplifting story with an important lesson. It’s one of those books kids enjoy and parents appreciate. Definitely one we’ll be keeping on the bookshelf for years to come.

Perfect condition and loved by the therapy team and children
