Kids learn well through repetition, and simple easy to ‘get’ language. Your children will incorporate the mindful mantra I Can Handle It almost immediately after reading this book! In a tough situation, they will think ‘I can handle it’, and when they are dealing with tough emotions, they will think ‘I can handle it!’. Even if they aren’t saying the words out loud, if they learn and practice this … it!’. Even if they aren’t saying the words out loud, if they learn and practice this mantra it will become a part of their self-talk.
Positive self-talk is incredibly important for improving and maintaining mental health and the mindful mantra books are a way to plant that positivity right into a child’s head!
Help your child learn to handle difficult emotions along with Sebastien, and provide a tool for lifelong confidence.

I love this sweet little book. I Can Handle It is about a little boy who thinks he can handle anything, and he names many things, including being bored, when the pool is closed, at bedtime and so much more. He also gives alternative things he can do to help him handle each situation. Such a great book for any child to read because all children have things that bother them. I love that this book teaches children to have a positive attitude when things don’t get as they expect it to. And the illustrations by Ana Santos are so very cute. I love all of the adorable facial expression this little boy had. And the expression on each face fits perfect with the story on that page, as well as the other things on the page. It all goes together so well. This is an adorable book inside and out. A book that is a must for your child’s home library, in each daycare, preschool, and in each elementary classroom and any library. Children need this book to read and and teach them about behavior issues. This book could be a good conversation starter in the home or in a classroom. Check out this book today for you home or library. You can’t go wrong with this one. I give I Can Do It Four Stars.

I Love Hedgehogs! (Okay now that I have that out of my system…)
Sebastien is a typical kid dreaming up some funny ideas of how he could accomplish things. It brought to mind the adage “if at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again.” I really enjoyed Laurie Wrights’s style of writing and I can see my classroom of kids loving how it speaks their language. The illustrations also added another element of cuteness and engagement geared towards kids. From Sebastien’s best friend (who is a Hedgehog) to all the creative ways he thinks of ways to handle situations Laurie Wright emphasizes that kids can do things and she leads them to some really helpful ways to process how to do them.
I think that this book is one every kid needs to read and grasp the concepts of. It helps take “I Can’t” out of their dictionaries and replaces it with “I Can Handle It”. I HIGHLY recommend this book and give it 5 out of 5 stars.
*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.
I Can Handle It is part of the Mindful Mantras series by Laurie Wright. I thought it was a great little book for younger readers. I thought it taught a good and valuable lesson that the children are able to take care of any situation. It is a great way for them to have new ideas on how to deal tough times in the future. They will be able to say they can handle it. I think it is a good way to help with their mental health. Especially, during this difficult time the world is experiencing at this very moment.
I really enjoyed the illustrations in I Can Handle It. Ana Santos’s talent shines through in the pictures throughout the book. They followed the story perfectly. The pages were so beautiful and vibrant that would catch any young reader’s eye. I adored the colorful pictures on every single page.
I Can Handle It is getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for young readers of all ages, especially for those that four to nine years old. I think many that have displayed some feelings of not being confidant on making certain decisions. It would be a perfect tool to show that they really can handle it. I will be looking for more books by Laurie Wright and her Mindful Mantras series in the future.
I received I Can Handle It from the publisher. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
I found another good book. This one is to help with your mental health. Though it is for children. The adult may enjoy it as well. It has a Mindful Mantra that may help you or your child or children how to handle tricky situations. It is called “I Can Handle It!”
This book is a good read and teaches you how to handle some situations that you may end up in your children. It deals with some different emotions that everyone goes through. It is easy to read. Parents will want this to read to their children to help with improving their confidence.
This will help your child or children with difficult emotions and with some of their problems. This book may have some ideas to help them to deal with some of the problems that they may have. The pictures are done well. It was written well.
Parents can read this to their child or children. They will learn to practice these Mantas or saying I Can Handle it as they read it. They will have this to fall back on after they read and reread this book. It is a wonderful teachable book. I enjoy the pictures. They show off some things that we can do to solve some of our emotions that are hard to express or deal with.
