📖 Description
Eric Russell's book, Keep Trying Betty, teaches children about the importance of learning from their mistakes. It follows the adventures of Betty the goldfinch. Betty is ready to leave her parents' nest, but she is anxious about how to build her own nest as perfectly as her mother's.
After several failures, Betty returns home to her mother for advice. Her mother encourages her to learn from her mistakes and to keep trying. After thinking about what went wrong with each of her failed nests and making adjustments, Betty succeeds in building the perfect nest.
The story book is great for teaching children how to use their failures as opportunities to learn from their mistakes. It emphasizes the universal idea that you're never a failure, unless you stop trying. It can help children who struggle with anxiety and perfectionism by giving them an example to model in their own lives.
