All by Myself

(But Sometimes I Need a Little Help!)

  • Interest Level: Preschool - Grade 2
  • Reading Level: Grade 2

I can do many things all by myself, but sometimes I need a little help.

A young child boasts about all the new things they can do such as stack blocks, connect two puzzle pieces, and put on their shoes. When it comes time to build a castle, complete a full puzzle, or tie their laces, they may have to ask for help. And that’s okay!

Elizabeth Everett channeled her experience as a teacher to pen this empowering story, and Shelley Hanmo used vibrant and fun cut paper art to bring a child’s favorite activities to do (with help!) to life.
