Skater Cielo - Hardcover

by Rachel Katstaller (Author), Rachel Katstaller (Illustrator)

Meet Cielo, a fierce skater who finds that facing your fear of failing gives you the courage to persevere!

Cielo loves to skateboard! But when she messes up on a new ramp she's embarrassed and afraid to fall again in front of so many people. With the help of some new friends, Cielo summons the courage to try again (and again, and again), and learns that falling is not failing--true fierceness isn't about landing the perfect trick, it's about picking yourself back up when you don't.
