STACY COOLIDGE'S FANCY-SMANCY HANDWRITING - A STORY ABOUT STAYING TRUE TO YOURSELF
Carolyn loves second grade...until her difficulty with handwriting shakes her confidence! Perfect for teachers searching for anxiety resources for their classrooms!
Stacey Coolidge is the best at handwriting. She hardly ever uses her eraser. But Carolyn isn't doing as well. Carolyn has been practicing cursive handwriting every day for weeks, and not only is she not going to get to play with Frederick, the class guinea pig, but her handwriting is also not much better than a guinea pig's. It's a good thing that her teacher, Mrs. Thompson, is able to turn her frustration into confidence!
This simple and humorous story reinforces the idea that practice always helps but that the end goal is not always perfection!
The Adventures of Everyday Geniuses demonstrates various forms of learning, creativity, and intelligence. Each book introduces a realistic example of triumph over difficulty in a positive, humorous way that readers of all ages will enjoy!

She has always been a "free association" thinker, finding life far more interesting while in a state of abstract thought. Barbara lives on the East Coast with her three daughters. Together they have explored the ideas and theories behind the definitions of intelligence, creativity, learning, and success.
