Why can-do counts
Published
It’s all too easy for children to become negative about themselves, especially if they suffer from any form of disability. A new book from disability advocates Josh Wintersgill and Alex Winstanley, Put Can’t in your Pocket and Pull Out Try (paperback, £8.99), encourages children to overcome their feelings of ‘can’t do’ and start to believe in themselves.
Based on a true event from Josh’s childhood, the illustrated story for children of 4-8 years follows a little boy who discovers how small moments of courage can change the way he feels about himself. Josh says: ‘This mantra helped me through so many moments growing up. I wanted to share it with children everywhere, especially those who might need a reminder that they are stronger than they think.’
