Believe in Yourself, Bobby Bee

“I can’t do it yet….but I believe I WILL learn.”

This becomes Bobby Bee’s mantra in the story. Bobby is our enthusiastic learner who learns to belief in himself.

At the start of the story, Bobby lacks self-belief and does not think he is capable of learning the special bee dance. This makes him appear lazy and unmotivated, however at the root of it all is a lack of self-confidence.

Throughout the story, Bobby realises that not getting something straight away is just part of the process of learning. He learns that if he keeps listening and practising, he can learn anything!

Children’s motivation to learn is often linked to their self-belief. When they develop Bobby’s hopeful attitude to learning, they can participate with enthusiasm and enjoy themselves!

Printed on A4 landscape, Believe in Yourself, Bobby Bee follows an inspiring journey which will help your child develop self-belief. They will internalise Bobby’’s mantra, ‘I believe I will learn,’ helping them to realise that effort and attitude are the key to learning well.

Believe in Yourself Bobby Bee is one of eight stories which help your child to develop a growth mindset towards learning and life.

Use these stories and you feel the atmosphere in the classroom shift. Instead of managing behaviour constantly, we are developing and rewarding learning skills demonstrated throughout each day. Children do not distract others because they want to Concentrate like Cooper Crab. They are motivated and switched on because they want to beeelieve in themselves like Bobby Bee and like Sadie Spider they do not give up easily.

This learning approach is a god-send! Children are empowered to develop a growth mindset in a language they understand. The characters in the stories motivate them to LEARN HOW TO LEARN effectively.

We already have Bobby bee, Tommy turtle and Cooper crab, my 5 year old absolutely adores these books. We like them so much we’ve ordered 4 more. The quality of the books is amazing, easy to hold for both adults and children. The details in the pictures is so good, you can tell time and effort has gone into each one. We can wait for the next in the series to come out!

Orla was so excited when she received her new book bundle! The books were so bold and vibrant; she couldn't wait to see the pictures inside. We read, 'Don't give up, Sadie Spider' first. The story was engaging and carried a clear simple message of not giving up. It is clever how each book involved characters from other books in Cape Ability. I definitely recommend these books to read with your child.

I have 2 of these books and my daughter absolutely loves them. we have read them over and over!! can't recommend then highly enough x

The Cape Ability approach is a powerful tool for pupils and teachers alike and I will certainly be using it in my classroom

Our 4 year old has absolutely loved reading about the journeys of Cooper, Sadie & Bobby. He has 2 books at bedtime and he always chooses to have the Cape Ability book twice! We are very excited to meet the rest of the Cape Ability gang! 🕷🐝 🦀
