Meet Leesa - a sparkly-hearted girl with messy curls, starry pajamas, and big feelings to match her big imagination.
In Leesa and the Magic of Trying Again, playtime doesn't always go the way Leesa hopes. When a game doesn't go her way, her sparkle dims, her lip wobbles, and frustration takes over. But with a deep breath, kind words, and the support of her furry friends, Leesa learns something powerful: feelings are okay, mistakes are okay, and trying again is where real magic happens.
Told in gentle, rhythmic rhyme and brought to life through cozy watercolor illustrations, this heartwarming story teaches children how to name their emotions, take a calming breath, and keep going - even when things feel hard.
Perfect for bedtime reading, classrooms, social-emotional learning, and children who are learning that it's okay to feel mad, sad, or disappointed - as long as they keep trying with kindness.
A sweet, meaningful story that reminds every child:
Your sparkle comes from inside you.
