I Can Do It Too! by Karen Baicker is a book that focuses on a child’s ability to do the same activities that older relatives and siblings can do. From pouring juice in the morning for breakfast to singing and playing guitar with her uncle, the vivid illustrations make clear connections with the text emphasizing the specific task that the child is trying to conquer while increasing her confidence. The visible brush strokes make the illustrations come alive. The rhyme schemes used throughout the book from beginning to end are helpful in allowing children to follow the story with ease. The reoccurring phrase “I can do it too!” allows the reader to continuously participate in the telling of the story. Children can easily associate with this story because it deals with the autonomous stage in a child’s development.
