Super Cute Book!

Catch the Ball is a great learning tool for helping children to verbalize their emotions. It can be tricky for children to understand that concept and this book can help! Follow along with Joel and Ezekiel as their experiences in football help them to understand positive reinforcement and speaking their mind.

I love that there are parent and educator tips at the end of the book!

Great addition to any classroom or home library!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with this book for free in exchange for my review! All opinions are my own.

One major reason I requested this book was the byline. Confidence and team work are very important skills to instill in a child from a very young age. As an adult, I've struggled with confidence and self-esteem (from anxiety) and I think this book would've come in handy for me as a child. Such an important book to read to children in this day and age!
