Gracie and The Negative Cinderella Story — A Tickle Train Man E-Book

What if one negative thought could keep a child from discovering something wonderful?

When Gracie meets a girl who believes she's "not good enough," she shares a fresh retelling of Cinderella that reveals how negative self-talk can quietly steal confidence, courage, and joy. As the story unfolds, children learn that the biggest obstacle isn't always what's happening around them — it's the "What if..." thoughts happening inside their minds.

Through kindness, friendship, and hopeful thinking, Gracie helps young readers discover they can flip their WITS, challenge negative thoughts, and choose courage instead. Filled with beautiful illustrations and meaningful life lessons, this book encourages children to build confidence, develop resilience, and believe they are capable of more than their fears tell them.

Perfect for children ages 4–9, parents, teachers, counselors, and anyone looking to encourage healthy thinking, emotional resilience, and positive self-talk.
