I Really Want to Win

Today is Sports Day, I can't wait.
And as I know that I'll be great,
I've planned how I will celebrate...
Because I'm going to WIN.
Our heroine and her sidekick pup have their eyes on the prize and are ready to find something to WIN. They compete in a spelling bee, a dancing contest, hide-and-seek, and more in search of a shiny medal. But what will happen if they... don't walk away the winner? Playfully tackling themes of competition, good sportsmanship, and being a fair loser (and winner!), I Really Want to Win joyfully reminds readers that, sometimes, winning isn't everything. With rollicking rhyming text from Simon Philip, bold, expressive illustrations from Lucia Gaggiotti, and a spunky heroine in the middle of it all, this follow-up to I Really Want the Cake is sure to be a winner!
"A great conversation starter about the frustrations of competition and the search for a personal passion." -- Kirkus Reviews
