“As an educator with over 25 years of experience, I have observed that children today often struggle with picking themselves up and finding solutions to their problems. The Bowly series is an exceptional collection of books designed to teach children essential skills such as resilience, a growth mindset, and grit. When I introduced the Bowly books to my Year 1 class, they were immediately captivated. The books are not only fun and engaging but also deeply impactful. I plan to prominently display the Bowly books in my classroom and regularly refer to them during lessons.”
