In a time when participation trophies are handed out to most kids, this book looks at not getting a trophy.  It says it’s OK to not get a trophy. That what matters isn’t if you win or if you lose, but it’s the person you are, and how you get where you’re at. I really like that message. I also really like the illustrations in this book. The book is long, especially towards the end. Once it gets to the main point in the message, it goes on and on and on almost like it’s beating a dead horse. I like this book, but it could do with better editing.
