"I love myself!
MY STUDENTS AND I LOVE THIS BOOK! Finally there is a book that addresses one of the key issues that face adolescents today, which is how they view themselves. Girls of any ethnic background can relate to this book because it points out the need to love yourself for who you are and not who society portrays beauty to be. After reading this story to my young students they told me what they liked the most about the book. First they let me know that the detail put into the illustration of the African American character helped them relate to her better.They understood the point that all of us should value ourselves as queens or princesses so we don't try to conform to what we are not.Teenagers or young girls who haven't started paying attention to what the media says is beautiful should have this book in their hands before it's too late.
