Description



Book Synopsis



The debut picture book by Academy Award-winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author Matthew McConaughey

Just because I'm in the race,
doesn't mean I'm fully ready.
Just because I'm shaking,
doesn't mean that I'm not steady.

Have you ever felt worried and excited at the same time?

Have you ever had your feelings hurt but forgiven someone anyway?

Have you ever thought there was more than one right answer to a question?

That's because contradictions are all around us. And they make us who we are.

Filled with his trademark humor and wisdom, Academy Award-winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author Matthew McConaughey has crafted a soulful and irreverent collection of life lessons that empowers readers, big and small, to celebrate how we are all full of possibility.

Why? Just because.

Confusing and didnt make sense

Half of this book didn’t even make sense. We were disappointed. We ordered 2 for drive up and one of the covers was totally damaged.
