There is a lot of pressure in society for kids to succeed, but failing is a part of learning how to be a successful person. In his teaching career, the author saw the stress and anxiety his students suffered, whether it was over grades, fitting in, or simply getting things right the first time. This book is the second installment in the author's personal campaign to show kids it's okay to fall down or make a mistake, just so long as you try, try again! The book shows students that their mistakes and failures do not define their whole lives but help them grow into their potential. Kids will read about a host of inspiring, courageous, and diverse people who have accomplished - or still are accomplishing - big things to make this world a better place. The book explores the many ways well-known people have failed both before and after succeeding and kids will come to understand that failure is a large component of success. A wide-range of stories from Greta Thunberg, Barack Obama, Nick Foles, Emma Gonzalez, Beyonce, Ryan Coogler, John Cena, Socrates, even the Jamaican national women's soccer team, prove that the greatest mistakes and flops can turn into something amazing. --,Provided by publisher.
