AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

A little girl who has been told that she is too sensitive learns how to lean into her strengths and overcome the naysayers.

The collage illustrations were such a great way to add visual depth to the story as the criticisms pile up inside the little girl. This would be a good story for your more introverted students as it helps them own their strengths and find ways to deal with the outside noise and opinions.
