TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated I Can Handle It! (Mindful Mantra #1) in Books
Feb 23, 2021
I Love Hedgehogs! (Okay now that I have that out of my system…)
Sebastien is a typical kid dreaming up some funny ideas of how he could accomplish things. It brought to mind the adage “if at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again." I really enjoyed Laurie Wrights’s style of writing and I can see my classroom of kids loving how it speaks their language. The illustrations also added another element of cuteness and engagement geared towards kids. From Sebastien’s best friend (who is a Hedgehog) to all the creative ways he thinks of ways to handle situations Laurie Wright emphasizes that kids can do things and she leads them to some really helpful ways to process how to do them.
I think that this book is one every kid needs to read and grasp the concepts of. It helps take “I Can’t” out of their dictionaries and replaces it with “I Can Handle It." I HIGHLY recommend this book and give it 5 out of 5 stars.
*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

Liked it, but way to much political agenda.
I liked it, but the political agenda was totally in your face. What with the racism and "be anything you want to be". I like kids' movies, just not ones that shove political stuff in my face so that that's all I focus on the whole movies.

Very very good, yes it is probably for kids but as an adult I loved it. It is a mixture of Goosebumps and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. It has the right amount of spookiness for children and some funny moments too. Will watch again and again and certainly one to remember. Loved it

Richard Linklater is a favourite director of mine and he doesn't disappoint in this musical comedy.
It has so many great moments and acting is top notch with Jack Black a stand out, the talented children and the heartwarming story are the icing on the cake, very re-watchable.

Hilarious book as Piggie and Gerald decide to surprise each other. Not only is the plan not well thought out, but it shows the character's personalities. It will leave adults and kids laughing.

I do enjoy Netflix. Has a good selection. Just doesn't update enough. They have a nice selection of documentaries. It's also good that I can add a separate profile for the kids. The movie selection is a bit dated. But overall it's a good way to past time if there is nothing else on tv.
