About Just Try It! Someplace New!: 

In this companion to the instant New York Times bestselling Just Try It! by Netflix star Phil Rosenthal and his daughter Lily, an encouraging dad eases his daughter’s worries about staying at Grandma’s for the first time.

Lil is getting ready to stay with Grandma on her own for the first time. How exciting! Except…what if she only eats broccoli? What if her bed is made of rocks? What if the mailman is a giant elephant?

All these questions make Lil scared, but Phil has the perfect piece of advice for soothing her fears: Just try it. Sometimes we’re scared of what we don’t know, and that’s okay. With a little help, Lil is ready to try.
