This is a book that needs to be out there to show kids that while they may want to blend in that sometimes if they stand out that could make all the difference. I was a quiet kid and seeing a book where a quiet little girl stands up and uses her voice to be able to help her friends means a lot to me.

 This book is going to be so helpful to so many parents who are trying to implement gentle parenting. This book accurately describes the child's valid feelings of upset as they are told no but through out the book the mom is always calm and collected and does an amazing job of holding the boundary. This is one that I will be reading with my kids and one that I would love to do a Toddler Time with because it is such an important story.
