From the moment I opened the front cover, the counselor in me kept thinking that my students are going to connect with and love this book; the mom in me wished I'd have had it when my own now-adult children were in their middle years . . . I enthusiastically recommend that you check out this treasure trove.,Barbara Gruener,The Corner on Character, 2/4/18
Nothing You Can't Do! from Mary Cay Ricci is aimed at middle-schoolers and would be useful in regular education classrooms as well as a motivational curriculum for guidance counselors. As such, teachers should be prepared to provide paper or a notebook for students if they intend to reuse their copies.,Lisa Conrad,Gifted Parenting Support, 9/16/18
I grew as a person in a few ways by reading this book. By doing the activities, I have realized the areas that I have a fixed mindset in, and how to change to a growth mindset. I would recommend this book to any reader 6 and above. This book should be read by elementary schoolers and full-grown adults alike. Everyone can harness the power of a growth mindset, and this book presents the information in an easily comprehensible way.,Anya Ambarish,Metropolitam Washington Mensa, 10/18/18
