Bookroo's summary

Amelia, a spirited second-grader, eagerly tackles skateboarding and building a swing set. But when mishaps strike, her confidence crumbles. With her dad's advice, she embraces a "gonna get it done" mindset, discovering that success has many forms. Can Amelia redefine failure and find her true strength?

From the publisher

Amelia is her name and conquering new challenges is her game! She takes up skateboarding with gusto and feverishly builds a swing set for her kid brother. But at the first sign of trouble tumbling off her skateboard and whacking her thumb with a hammer she’s done. Her confidence shattered, Amelia frets she’s a failure. But after a little self-reflection and some loving advice from dear-old Dad, Amelia learns she needs a GONNA-GET-IT-DONE mindset. With her new outlook, she discovers success has many definitions]]more than she ever imagined. Mindset Matters teaches children how to see problems and dilemmas as opportunities to learn and grow, and reveals why failing doesn’t make them failures.
