Verse:
Sleeping with the lights off
No feet on the bike
Chased by a dog
And that water slide
Playing the banjo
And singing out loud
Believing in myself to sure made me proud
Chorus:
I can climb any mountain
Take a swim with no jacket
After the Fall
by Tiffany Wilson and Nate Bogopolsky
Life Begins when you get back up.
Written and illustrated by Caldecott medal winner Dan Santat (The Adventures of Beekle: The Unimaginary Friend), After the Fall follows Humpty Dumpty, an avid bird watcher who loves to be high up on the city wall. But after his fall, Humpty is terrified of heights and can no longer do his favorite things. He finally pulls together the courage to climb back up the wall. Based on the beloved nursery rhyme, this inspiring and unforgettable picture book will encourage even the most afraid to overcome their fears, learn to get back up—and reach new heights.
