4.0

This short book is all about the perils of young Jack as he tries to master the art of bike riding. Some early follies keep him from enjoying things, though his dad tries to show him that practice will help. After some wobbles and a little fall, Jack picks himself back up and begins the process again. Eventually, things work out and he wants the world to know that he is a great bike rider. Never have I wanted a short piece to end so much as I pushed Neo to read the entire book on his own. Phonetics and tried to remember sight words had me tugging on what little hair I have. However, while we both ended up frustrated, we made it. It can only get better from here, as I seek to create the next generation of Goodreads participants.
