Bookroo's summary

A spirited princess teaches her little brother the joys of being active, from soccer to yoga. As they tumble and scrape their knees, she learns that effort and fun matter most. Can they embrace the adventure of trying new things together, even when things don't go as planned? Discover the playful journey of sibling bonding and the courage to keep going despite setbacks.

From the publisher

“When I grow up can I be sporty like you? You can do anything you set your mind to.” This is NOT your average big-sister princess! This active princess plays soccer, does yoga, falls on the ice, and scrapes her knobby knees while showing her little brother how to be sporty, too. This charming story helps children see that it’s okay to fall down and scrape their knees when trying something new, even when showing off for a sibling. It’s the trying and the fun that count. Through belly-flops and missed baskets, our priceless princess discovers that doing your best is all that really matters,even when your little brother is tagging along.
