Today is learning to ride a bike day!
A picture book for everyone who remembers the excitement and thrill of their first challenge.

Today is my first day learning to ride a bike.
I took off the training wheels and got on the bike with a full heart, but the bike didn't move as I wanted.
If you stagger around without even being able to put your feet on the ground, you will likely end up falling over.
But the child doesn't give up.
I shake it off, get up, and start pedaling again.
Every time a child falls and gets up again, a little more courage is built up in his heart.

A quiet and affectionate supporter who silently watches over the child

“Daddy, don’t let go yet!” The father, who had been holding the saddle tightly at the child’s cry, soon disappeared.
The child learns to balance on his own.
Rather than holding on to the bicycle to prevent it from falling, the guardian watches over the child who has fallen, silently cheering them on in their hearts, believing that they will get back up and find their way.
During this time, the child builds up the courage and confidence to do things on his own.

As the child's pedaling gains strength, the black and white scenery gradually takes on color, and the falling leaves behind the child's bicycle seem to be affectionately congratulating the child.
