Description
Of all the letters of the alphabet, only I was brave enough to jump off the page!
2023 NAPPA Award Winner
"Curious and inspired, I was full of ideas!"
This encouraging tale about a daring letter in the alphabet who wants to stand out uses a clever play on words to deliver a message about creativity, individuality, and following your dreams! During letter-writing practice in a classroom, the letter I is bold, brave, and ready to break free from the page. The other letters of the alphabet have mixed feelings about I's daring adventure. But I was determined and full of possibility! Children and parents will adore and appreciate the double meaning of "I" as they read this inspiring story with its message of confidence, because, "Just as I was about to head off on a new adventure, I looked up and saw U. And I knew…U could do it too.”
