Review
I just wanted to hug Jessica! Her nervousness is clearly, but sweetly portrayed. Her family is encouraging. This book could really be affirming for kids who struggle with reading or with reading confidence.
4 out of 5 stars
Recommended for: children under 8, library story times, classroom story times, family bedtime reading, children who struggle with reading or with reading out loud or with reading confidence.
Cautions: none
