The Second Collection
Sage Keeps Trying
not giving up
The training wheels are off, and Sage is sure riding a big-kid bike will be easy — until it's wobble, tumble, wobble, tumble, and "It's impossible!" Then a clever crow named Sable lands on the fence with a story about a thirsty day, a tall pitcher, and one small pebble at a time. Big things, it turns out, don't get done all at once — they get done little by little, if you just keep going.
A warm, motivating picture book about perseverance, patience, and never giving up, Sage Keeps Trying is a modern story inspired by the timeless wisdom of Aesop's Fables — here, "The Crow and the Pitcher." Perfect for reading aloud with children aged 3–8.
