About the Book

Throughout her work as an Elementary School Counselor, Ashley McClain has worked with children on a variety of personal/social issues, such as enhancing social skills, developing healthy coping skills, and facilitating the development of a positive self-concept. Mrs. McClain's work to help a particular child overcome perfectionism was a significant component of her inspiration to write this book. It is hoped that this book can be used to help teach children the invaluable lessons that it is okay to make mistakes, and most importantly, that no one is perfect.
