About the Book

Kelsey's a typical schoolgirl. She likes to hang out with her friends, play games, do all the standard stuff. But there's one thing about Kelsey that really gets her into trouble. She is very competitive and she HATES to lose. So much so that she is not afraid to cheat, throw a tantrum or just act like a poor sport in general! And not only is she a sore loser, but she's a terrible winner! When Kelsey's poor sportsmanship - or "sportsgirlship," as she likes to call it - causes her basketball team to lose a close game and makes her siblings refuse to play with her, she soon realises she needs to change her ways. Fortunately, Kelsey's coach and mum are there to teach her the important tips for being a good sport and winning and losing with class. Kelsey learns that practising good "sportsgirlship" can help her have more fun playing any game, whether she's winning or losing!

Review :
"The concept of showing good sportsmanship, whether you win or lose, is a hard topic for younger students to understand. I love how this book teaches the topic of sportsmanship in a serious yet funny manner. I look forward to sharing this book with the kids in my school."- Kent Bettley, Coach (Lovejoy ISD), TX It was very enlightening to my 5 and 7 year old grandsons to see what a poor sport looks like, and realize that no one wants to play with someone who can't handle losing. It has given them something to think about, and the older boy is noticeably better at being a graceful loser. The younger brother is right behind him. Good book. - Diane from the Bay Area Now that most of our kids are heading back to learning in person again, this whole, I need to get along with others is a THING!!! Our students and children have been cooped up in their houses, and they're LEARNING how to navigate being a team player, learning from their mistakes, and doing their personal best. And because they're LEARNING these skills, that's why it's so important to TEACH them how to navigate their social world. This is such a great book for ALL of us to read to our kiddos right now. It's perfect for parents, teachers, counselors, social stories, small group sessions, or a bedtime story to reflect on the day. Thank you @boystownpress as always for putting out the perfect books to help our children. Just the best! - Kim Gameroz, Behavioral Support Specialist
