You Are 7 and Ready!

Does your daughter have a birthday coming up? This might be the best gift she opens.
You Are 7 and Ready! is a collection of 12 short stories about real girls facing real situations - a wobbly first day at a new school, a new baby who takes up all the attention, a best friend who starts sitting with someone else at lunch, a big feeling that comes out before you can catch it. Twelve stories. Twelve girls. Twelve moments that every seven-year-old will recognize.
But this book does not stop at the stories.
After every chapter your daughter gets three questions to think about, a real-world challenge to try that week, and a badge to earn when she completes it. By the time she reaches the last page she will have done twelve real things - not just read about them. Every challenge is designed to be completed by a 7-year-old, on her own, without needing anything special to do it.
Seven is a big year. It is the year friendships start to shift and feelings start to feel bigger and the world starts to get a little more complicated. This book was written for exactly that - for the girl right in the middle of figuring it all out, who is doing much better than she knows.
The twelve chapters cover: starting something new, a new sibling, friendship changes, trying when it feels too hard, big feelings, telling the truth, making things right, worries, being heard, honesty after a mistake, kindness without being asked, and looking forward.
Perfect for birthdays, Christmas, end of year gifts, and any girl aged 6 to 8 who is figuring out who she is.
From the author: "I wrote this book for the girl who is brave in small ways every single day and does not always know it yet."
