Do you know what an affirmation is? Jaimie does – it’s her positive way of starting each day. In Amarie Jelly’s Jaimie’s Magical Words, young Jaimie starts her day with these affirmations: “I am smart, I am kind, and I am ready for a great day!” Now that’s positive thinking and it’s a great guiding light to help the young girl navigate her day, through confidence, kindness, and self-love. Things always go well during the day, but Jaimie has affirmations for the difficult times as well. She also embraces her family and friends with affirmations and takes pleasure in being fun and creative in all that she does. Now that’s positivity!
Amarie Jelly’s picture book, Jaimie’s Magical Words, is a powerful gem of a story to help young people believe in themselves and think positively about all that they do and all that they are. The story is told in simple language to help young readers improve their reading skills. The illustrations are bright, bold, and colorful and help move the story along. The plot follows young Jaimie as she goes through a day, from brushing her teeth to creating sand castles in her sandbox to helping set the table for dinner – all that Jaimie does is done with a smile and a positive affirmation. There is magic in her simple words, a magic that spells positivity and self-love. We can’t love others and move forward in our lives if we don’t think well of ourselves, if we don’t believe in ourselves, and Jaimie certainly believes in herself. What a great little girl! Loved the story.
