Favorite Book: I Knew You Could


My favorite children's book is I Knew You Could by Craig Dorfman.  I received this book for my high school graduation, and I have used it so many times with so many different ages since.  It is a book about the track you take in life.  It talks about choosing your own track, how sometimes you will have friends along on the journey, and sometime you have to go alone, and how sometimes you have to rest, because it is inevitable there will be hill ahead, and that's when you have to dig in and push hard.  It is an amazing book that preschoolers as well as high school students can relate to.  Recently I had a girl from a varsity softball team I coached contact me.  She was so excited to tell me that she used I Knew You Could in a lesson she was teaching a third grade class.  This book has a great rhythm, rhyme and storyline, it is definately worth picking up.
