Het verhaaltje is wel erg eenvoudig, maar het boek bevat prachtige illustraties van onze goede vriendin Azize Tekines (https://www.instagram.com/aziillustra...).

"Try, Try Again" by Adam Ciccio is a succinct story about a child that falls off her bike. It is written in rhyme and captures the emotions of failing, fear, desire, courage and celebration. The illustrations flow right along with the path of emotions. The main character finds her way back to her bike and the open road by talking herself into trying again. I love the nature included in the illustrations and that all the bike riders are wearing helmets.
