Limitless Me: A Wonderful Tale of Overcoming Fear

Rate this book
“Why did I hide what I knew was inside? I was thrilled to be me, but didn’t feel free.  Fear of failure and rejection was my infection.”  - Faye

Have your children ever been terrified to do something, even though they really wanted to do it? If so, they're not alone, because self-doubt is Faye’s biggest problem, too!  Limitless Me is the inspirational and poetic rhyming tale of a little girl named Faye, who is amazing, unique, creative, and talented. But, she’s afraid of failure and rejection. Every time she attempts to try something new, FEAR jumps in to tell her “You can’t!” or “You’re Not!”.

More than anything, Faye wanted to audition for the school play and make new friends, but her insecurity was holding her back.  In this empowering story for kids, Faye uses her own imagination and inner strength to overcome fear and to give herself the courage to chase her dreams and find new friendships. Limitless Me is an adorable beginning chapter book and a perfect read-aloud book for parents and teachers looking for a story that teaches self-confidence for kids, self-reliance, the value of friendship and courage. 

“I’m thrilled to be me and now I feel free. Fear and rejection, no longer my infection.  I will not hide what I feel inside, because I believe in myself.  I believe I am great.”  - Faye

Have faith and believe in yourself!

This book is so wonderful! Its message is so powerful. It is written in rhyme and gives different examples of scenarios where the girl feels this 'infection' of fear of failure and rejection. I could relate to that little girl as and reading this book gave me a new perspective. I love the box analogy and how she was able to break out of the box, cut it up and even make something else out of the pieces!
This book is suitable for all ages - anyone who has ever had self doubt and irrational fears should read this wonderful book.

Sweet book with an very important message

Told in rhythmic rhyme, we follow Faye through this well written story, as she struggles with self doubt! She faces many fears that both children and adults face in life, but soon learns to believe in herself and that life is limitless with the right mindset! In the end she is on center stage! This is an uplifting story that I recommend for all children!

A lively book that shows what having confidence can do!

Written in a playful, rhythmic fashion, this story will be enjoyed by children while they also learn an important lesson about having confidence. I was surprised by the variety of rhyming words the author came up with - that is an added plus for kids to learn some new words. The illustrations add to the story by showing the emotions that Faye experiences. I highly recommend this.

You are Limitless

“Limitless Me” is created by segmented stories of the main character’s life struggles interwoven by her efforts (and later success) at overcoming her fear. The story is an elevated rhyme throughout. I absolutely loved the interplay between text and pictures— especially towards the end— and can see how kids will appreciate and enjoy that too! I really appreciated the review questions at the end— a very well thought out and kid-focused story!

Wonderful and Inspiring

This is really the greatest lesson to learn in life, you can go as far as you allow yourself. This author does a fantastic job of showing the journey from doubt to success and all the steps along the way. The main character is every person at one point or another so a child will be able to relate and draw inspiration. Wonderful job!

Beautiful book!

What a beautiful book! This is the kind of positive message little girls (and boys) need to see. Needless to say, seeing diverse characters made me that much happier :) I also like that it doesn’t show an overnight transformation but instead shows the entire process through an inner dialog.

Powerful message

This story is a powerful message of the importance of determination and self-love . It's a reminder, especially for young girls, to ignore your haters , doubt, and overcome your fears. Faye's experiences that caused her doubts and fears are relatable to kids today. Definitely recommend this book to parents of elementary aged children.

A self-help for your insecurities!

Faye was a very shy and insecure girl. She had an internal struggle to overcome her shyness and fears. This story teaches children how to never stop to believing in yourself and to look for things that make you unique. Beautiful Story!

Have faith in yourself!

When I saw the word faith I was put off as I presumed it referred to religion. I was wrong, the story covers self doubts and overcoming them by having faith in your own abilities.
I enjoyed reading it, it rhymes well and in my head I was almost rapping it!

It’s all In your head!

This book takes readers on a journey with the main character who is reluctant to be courageous. Negative thoughts go in her head. At the end, she takes a risk and realizes she is limitless. This book is great for anyone young or old.
