REVIEWS

Tina Tumbles is a fun, lyrical story with an important message weaved beneath the storyline: teaching kids to get back up when they fall down, and to give it their all, no matter how many times they face defeat. These are messages that I hope to instill in my own children. Tina shows kids that with a little persistence and a positive attitude, anything is possible.”

Growing up as a member of the Cuban national team, I know how difficult the sport of gymnastics can be. Motivational tools are essential in our sport and a children’s book that teaches kids to keep trying after a ‘tumble’ is an ideal way to reach children of all ages and abilities. Tina Tumbles is a great avenue of showing gymnasts the importance of perseverance, determination and commitment all while having fun!”

“My son and I love Tina and her tumbling ways. The story is simple yet powerful – how many children grow up watching their heroes on television, imagining that they too could be there one day. Tina is an inspiration to all, overcoming challenges big and small in order to learn something new. As Canadian Olympic gymnast and author of the kids book “Kika the Upside Down Girl”, I truly value the lesson Tina’s story has for us all. And I bet after reading this book, all kids will want to tumble, twist and turn their way around!”

The first thing that grabbed my attention about this book is the beautiful illustrations. Each and every page is full of realistic yet fun and colorful images that children will definitely enjoy. And the story by Danielle Soucy Mills is not only delightful and relatable, but it has an important message that children should learn. No matter how many times Tina fell, she got right back up and continued trying. She tried and tried until she accomplished her goal. Kids will see that hard work, dedication, and perseverance will lead to achieving their goals. Though it will certainly appeal to gymnastics enthusiasts, this book will be adored by children who have any interests at all because they will be able to relate to Tina. The stunning illustrations, the significant lesson, and the cute, entertaining story are all wrapped up in this wonderful book. Tina Tumbles is adorable, and I highly recommend it for parents to read with their children. I know I will be!”

“Tina Tumbles fills a void, as it is a sweet child’s story about her first foray into a sport that captivates so many. I read this book aloud to my six year old, and it held her attention and made her smile. Several times since, I’ve seen her pick it up and read it to herself. The text is within her reading level (end of first grade), with a few more challenging words. While I bought this book because of it’s gymnastics theme, we adored Tina and would love to read more of her adventures!!”

-Ann, Review from Amazon.com

My daughter (age 7 ) has been in love with Tina Tumbles. A truly great book, well written with gorgeous illustrations inside. Every parent should make this book part of their library. The book not only encourages children to become more active but it teaches them to step out of their comfort zone and become a successful achiever. Share what you’re reading!
