Written and Illustrated by Tina Kügler
This book was a let down. The pictures are adorable, the title is catchy, but the positives end there. I can see the author was trying to teach a good lesson, but the story line isn’t enough.
The characters are so cute, they are a little quirky and adorable. I wish they could have had a better story to back them up. The lessons are too on the nose. It taught about accepting change, being grateful, and accepting ourselves, but they were so straightforward that it was a bore.I might suggest this to a teacher who needs a specific book to help with behaviors of a student, but outside of that I won’t be recommending it.
