My Wiggly Brain
A Joyful Story About Big Imaginations, Mistakes, and the Power of a Growth Mindset
My Wiggly Brain is a heartwarming children’s book that celebrates curiosity, resilience, and the wonderfully active minds of young learners. Through playful storytelling and expressive illustrations, children follow a little narrator whose brain “wiggles” with ideas—jumping, spinning, imagining, and exploring all day long.
Sometimes a wiggly brain leads to spills, messes, or forgotten steps. Sometimes it leads to brilliant ideas, creativity, and problem-solving. Along the journey, the child learns an essential truth: mistakes are not failures—they are part of learning, growing, and becoming stronger every day.
This uplifting story helps children develop a growth mindset by showing them how to reframe challenges, practice self-compassion, and see every moment—even the tricky ones—as an opportunity to learn.

• Children ages 4–8
