This set includes the book "How Grinner Became a Winner" AND two adorable, soft, plush 16" hand puppets: GRINNER, the flying squirrel and BLACKBELT the raccoon who helps Grinner learn the steps to becoming a winner! Both puppets make a great addition to the book!
Meet Grinner, the reluctant flying squirrel who learns what it takes to be a winner. This book contains six colorfully illustrated stories that teach how Grinner learned to develop a winning attitude and use four powerful strategies for success.
Through these stories, children are inspired to learn and use four powerful steps that will help them become winners in school and life.
Step 1: I can be a winner! Children learn they can make a choice to think of themselves as winners.
Step 2: I can show I'm a winner! Children learn how to show others that they are winners.
Step 3: I can start like a winner! Children learn how to prepare for and promptly begin tasks.
Step 4: I can finish like a winner! Children learn how to finish tasks with their best effort.
In this book, the term "winner" and "win" denote effort and personal excellence, not something achieved merely through competition. Attitude, motivation, and determination distinguish a true winner. A young person works to become a winner by developing a positive "I can" attitude and by practicing effective success skills. These stories teach children that they all have the ability to be winners and that they can choose to win by doing their personal best.
