The ABCs of Positive Affirmations

About the Book

As little ones, children work to learn their ABCs. They learn letter by letter, but soon, those letters come together to form words. Those words shape the world, but also how children communicate about themselves. Words have power! It’s important to use them in positive ways to encourage positive self-talk. In The ABCs of Positive Affirmations, author and illustrator Alexa Schopfer takes children on an illustrated journey through the alphabet. As the story begins, she uses words like amazing, brave, caring, and determined and continues through the entire chain of letters. With each word, she includes an easy-to-remember affirmation. Alexa wants children to know how special they truly are, each and every one. Through this powerful journey from A to Z, she reminds kids—and parents alike—that there are always good words to use to describe themselves. Both educational and inspirational, The ABCs of Positive Affirmations teaches the alphabet but more importantly teaches self-love and confidence.
