Description

Shaun is strong enough to know that even things that don't come easily can be mastered through determination and work. Learning to ride his two-wheeler, he overcomes fear and teasing and manages to impress friends and bullies alike. From the I’m A Great Little Kid series developed by BOOST Child Abuse Prevention & Intervention Center to teach kids communication, self-esteem-building and other important skills.

Advance Praise

"In Never Give Up, a commendable and refreshing touch is that Nadia's wearing of the hijab figures naturally and subtly. A cast of multicultural characters populates the supportive environments depicted in Qin Leng's sensitive illustrations."

"Though Cole employs a straightforward approach to telling the stories [in the I'm A Great Little Kid series], their content is anything but simplistic. The author provides plenty of fodder for course content for character-education programs and thought-provoking and insightful classroom discussions about ethics, morals and values." - Canadian Children's Book News

"Never Give Up is an excellent story for bedtime, and it’s great for use for bigger conversations with kids about self esteem, bullying, and learning new things." - CM Magazine
