What do you do after you've messed up?
Racing paper boats with his best friend Pip, Bo grabs for the lead — and wrecks Pip's favorite boat. Pip walks away, hurt. A heavy feeling sinks into Bo's tummy: not mad, not scared… just awful. Bo wants to hide and pretend it never happened.
Bo Makes It Right is a warm, honest picture book for children ages 4–8 about mistakes, apologies, and repair. With kind Nana Pockets, Bo learns that a mistake doesn't make you bad — and that a real sorry has two parts: say it, and show it.
Inside this book:
• A tender story about guilt, kindness, forgiveness, and bouncing back
• Bo's Settle + “Make It Right” — how to give a real apology and repair
• A Grown-Up's Guide on guilt vs. shame and building resilience
• “Say It & Show It” activities for real, meaningful apologies
Perfect for friendship bumps, “I'm sorry” moments, and kids learning that mistakes can be mended.
