My 6yo loves this book so much that she asked me to take a pic of her reading it. It addresses standing up for oneself, overcoming jealousy & learning to forgive -- all in an entertaining, fun way that is sure to hook many early elementary kids. Recommended, especially for girls who fear that having a backbone means they're -- gasp -- bossy.

See an outtake for this book shoot on my Twitter, @caryncaldwell. It's my daughter's idea of book styling.
