Help children build confidence, emotional intelligence, and self-love—one empowering moment at a time.

My Way to Being Me is a heartwarming, rhyming book that helps children navigate big feelings, build healthy self-esteem, and embrace who they are. Through everyday experiences—from messy mornings and trying new hobbies to dance recitals and self-doubt—Melissa learns that she doesn’t need sparkly dresses or perfection to shine. What matters most is showing up with kindness, courage, and confidence in who she is.

Part of Elizabeth Cole’s popular My Way series, this inspiring story blends practical social emotional learning (SEL) with meaningful messages about self-worth, inner beauty, and resilience. It’s a perfect pick for parents and educators looking for confidence building books for kids, growth mindset books for kids, or children’s books about emotions that go beyond the basics.
