Amazon Description

In this clever and literal play on words, OK is turned on its side, upside down, and right side up to show that being OK can really be quite great. Whether OK personifies an OK skipper, an OK climber, an OK lightning bug catcher, or an OK whatever there is to experience, ok is an OK place to be. And being OK just may lead to the discovery of what makes one great.

With spare yet comforting illustrations and text, Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld celebrate the real skills and talents children possess, encouraging and empowering them to discover their own individual strengths and personalities.

One Potato Review

Here is a book that takes its mission seriously in a culture obsessed with excellence. Is it great? Probably not. But how many times can you hear about people ranking in the very top percentile of just about everything without wondering where it is those other ninety-nine percent are maybe hiding out?
