About this item

by Pam Vaughan (Author), Leanne Hatch (Illustrator)

A tender, funny, and inspirational picture book for fans of The Magical Yet, and every child who, like Tenacious, might need a little reminder of what it means to persevere.

When Tenacious made up her mind
to do something, she tried her hardest.
No matter what.

The Wheel Parade is coming up, and Tenacious is determined to join on her two-wheeler. But no matter how hard she tries--Crash! Crash! Crash!--Tenacious just can't get it right. With a little sage advice from her sister, she comes to see that sometimes trying smarter, not harder, is the best way to get where you want to go. With humor and heart, an experienced coach offers a fresh perspective on learning to ride.

Ride along with Tenacious as she learns how to ride her bike, and discovers something much greater in the process!
