It is incredibly frustrating to always be so close but never quite there! Abby is so tired of the almosts that she considers giving up on the upcoming science competition entirely. After all, she will probably just almost win. But when Abby almost falls face-first into a giant mud puddle, she suddenly realizes something important. What if getting an almost is not always a bad thing? You will love following Abby as she changes her perspective and learns to see the bright side of her everyday struggles. This encouraging story beautifully captures the frustration of disappointment while showing how a positive attitude can turn an almost into a victory.
