Abi "gives up": everything she tries ends in disaster! On a school trip, she avoids the swimming pool but has to join a team game. Convinced she’s failed, she runs off, falls into a ravine, and stays put to avoid making things worse. Cold and hunger will force her to fend for herself. But a chance encounter with a bear changes everything: "It's normal to fall; you just have to try again."
A tale of resilience and seeing failure as an opportunity, with vibrant gouache illustrations in zesty colors.
