"Today Was Different: I Can Do It Myself" is an inspiring children's book designed to help young readers gain confidence and independence in their daily lives. The story follows Niko, an imaginative and determined young boy, and his trusty sidekick, Rad Rhino—a vibrant, playful rhinoceros with a big heart. Together, they navigate the challenges and triumphs of daily routines, all while dressed in their superhero costumes that symbolize their courage and creativity.
Through engaging scenarios, such as getting dressed, brushing teeth, preparing snacks, and exploring the world through play, Niko learns the value of perseverance and the joy of achieving milestones on his own. Each activity becomes an opportunity to grow, as Niko realizes, step by step, that he is capable of taking charge of his day.
Illustrated with the author's own vibrant paintings, the book bursts with color, whimsy, and charm, drawing readers into Niko and Rad Rhino's dynamic world. With a rich background in pediatric occupational therapy and mental health, the author crafts a story that resonates deeply with children who face developmental challenges, while also inspiring all young readers to embrace their independence and potential.
This heartwarming tale celebrates the beauty of trying, learning, and believing in oneself—a perfect addition to every child's bookshelf. It's more than a story; it's a tool for building self-confidence, designed with care and creativity for children and families alike.
