Dumplin' by Julie Murphy
4.0

This was cute and sweet. I like how the main message was that we create our own insecurities and we stand in the way of ourselves most of the time. Sure, bully and teasing happens. We can't control that, but we can control what we do about it. Some parts of this book were a little off in the pacing and everything wrapped up a little too well, but still, it was a very enjoyable and quick read. I'm excited to give it to my students.
