The School of Failure: A Story About Success Hardcover – Picture Book, May 10, 2022

This beautifully crafted story centers around perseverance and exploration, making space for kids to be comfortable with a growth mindset. *AWESOME*Fun and approachable, my kids (4 and 5) love this story because of the silly mishaps the characters experience on their way to success. And I love the reframe of what success can look like!

Such a great story to teach little ones to persevere and never give up!

School of Failure is a great read aloud for the beginning of the school year or anytime that kids are feeling the pressure of competition and that they are not measuring up. Rosie J. Pova uses a fractured fairy tale format and characters to convey important messages-you don't have to be perfect to be your best, doing what you like is more important than being liked, and to keep trying even when things don't go your way. The illustrations bring the delightful characters to life in a book that demands to be read again and again.

A group of rag-tag fairy-tale rejects find hope, success & friendship in this charmingly evergreen story by Rosie Pova. Chock full of humor, twists and palatable positivity, it’s great as a fun summer read or teacher/birthday gift. With an A+ re-readability score, The School of Failure’s perfect storybook ending is just right for your next snuggle party!

The book itself is great, however the back of the book is warped. Disappointing because I ordered the book for an Author signing event at my son's school and wish it would have arrived in better condition.

The School of Failure is a beautifully illustrated tale of trying, failing, and trying again. My kids and I enjoyed the twist on traditional fairy tale characters. There is a great message of success coming from trial and error and the lesson of never giving up.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I purchased this book for my grandchildren until I read it - twice! The first time to get the jest of the book, and the second time to grasp the depth. This book is wonderful! Using three unique characters, they find what they are good at by actually trying and failing at what they originally wanted to do. In other words, it is a great idea to try to do something, but if you don't succeed at it, it's okay to try something different. Starting over is a wonderful idea and who knows what blessings will come from it? I can hardly wait to share this with my grandchildren!

This cute book written by Rosie J. Pova and beautifully illustrated by Monika Filipina left a smile on my face after I finished reading it.Not only did I love following the struggles of such funny fairytale characters, who feel like old friends; but I also enjoyed the way in which each one of them reached their personal success through failure. I think this book has such an important message for children and it can inspire them to always try their best in what they do, not necessarily striving to be perfect. I appreciate how the book highlights that the way to success is through hard work, perseverance, and making mistakes as a way to learn. Also that everyone has a different take on what being successful looks like and how to achieve it.I highly recommend this book! It would definitely be great addition to school, libraries, and homes.
