Never be afraid to be yourself. Frances Dean learns this important message by Birgitta Sif. :)
I loved this story about how things sometimes get "messed up," in life and how it is helpful if we just learn to let it go. :) The art is pretty cool, too!
An interesting twist on a familiar story. Great for point of view and author's voice/craft. Masterful pictures.
Incredible art and illustrations. Students will enjoy taking time to examine each page and discovery all of the different elements presented. A great lesson on how sometimes a story can get out of hand quickly, especially if you don't set the facts straight from the beginning. The ending will leave some students wondering about what happens at school the next day.
Everyone is an artist and this book proves just that. Students who are reluctant to experience art because they aren't "good at it," will enjoy the message of this story.
