A brightly illustrated rhyming story about a group of children whose creative endeavours have gone askew, Mistakes are Great teaches children to embrace their mistakes with courage.
Join Max the magician, Tallulah the inventor and their school friends as they recount the legend of the Mistake Monsters, who were once creatures to be feared, but soon become valuable guardians in disguise. With the help of their wise mouse narrator, everyone learns that mistakes are brilliant opportunities to improve and grow.
The Courage Club series equips children with the skills needed to make friends with their feelings and embrace new challenges. These playful rhyming stories are perfect for nurturing confidence and emotional wellbeing. Parent and teacher notes at the back offer support for discussing feelings and emotional resilience with children right from the early years and up.
Matt Bawler is the creator of The Courage Club, a children’s book series designed to support young readers in developing inner strength, self-belief and emotional resilience from the very start of their journey. Inspired by his work with children and families, the stories were written to give every child (and their grown-ups) the language, tools and confidence they need to face challenges, grow in self-belief, and discover the courage that already lives inside them.
Matt currently works as Head of Early Years and Wellbeing for a school in South London. A teacher of over 20 years, his biggest passion is supporting children in the Early Years and up to develop strong foundations in positive mental health. This is not just to equip children with the tools to cope when life’s challenges come but also to empower them with the skills to be able to thrive well beyond that.
