Sir Can't-A-Lot
There once was a boy who said “can’t” … A LOT! He earned the nickname Sir Can’t-A-Lot. He loved the medieval times and having daily imaginative adventures with his pet dragon named Merlin. Arthur is often in his imagination, and he forgets to do things "in the real world", like chores. His parents had a clever idea to remind Arthur to do his chores, believe in himself that he CAN do anything he puts his heart and mind to. Beautifully illustrated by visionary artist, Biljana (Banchotova) Webb.
There once was a boy who said “can’t” … a lot! His parents nick-named him Sir Can’t-A-Lot, as he loved the medieval times and wore a knight’s helmet he bought at a Renaissance Festival last summer. He also had a pet bearded dragon lizard named Merlin, who he had daily imaginative adventures with.
Trouble is, Arthur is so much in his imagination, he forgets to do things "in the real world" like chores. He can't get through them without procrastination or worry. Something else is on Arthur's mind, distracting him from being brave.
His parents come up with a clever idea to remind Arthur to do his chores and believe in himself that he CAN do anything he puts his heart and mind to.
