For those children struggling to get things just right, this story will inspire them to keep trying, even when plans go awry. A great message for little perfectionists!
When a little inventor decides to make THE MOST MAGNIFICENT THING, she has it all planned out in her mind. She works hard, but the creation that results is not what the inventor had in mind… This is a story about creativity, disappointment, resilience and perseverance.
It can be frustrating when things go wrong or are not quite as you hoped they’d be. When this happens, it can make you very angry and sad.
This story shows how friends can help distract you from your frustrations, and show you a different perspective over time. The little girl has a trusty assistant – a small dog, who gives her just the right amount of encouragement to carry on.
Once the little girl has calmed down, she finds that she feels better and is able to look at her problem with a new perspective. She sees the situation differently and is finally able to create something she is pleased with.
