When a drawing of a little girl comes to life, she doesn't want to be erased, or put into a picture that doesn't feel like her. Instead, she decides to speak up in a powerful way. And she has some words of advice: embrace what you have, love yourself, and "rock what ya got."
In this joyful expression of self-love by author Samantha Berger (What If..., Crankenstein), a young girl's resounding declaration offers a timeless lesson, reminding readers of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities that it's okay to be yourself. Bold illustrations from Kerascoet (Malala's Magic Pencil) bring the engaging story to life.Affirming, inspiring... Charming... A supportive, upbeat read and engaging approach to the topic of appreciating and celebrating who you are at every age, for children and their adults to share.--Booklist
Berger's prose is a joyous celebration of self-love and empowerment... Kerascot captures this same exuberance and breathes life into every inch of the page... Energetic.
--Kirkus
Upbeat... a terrific message about finding the best parts of ourselves without judgment.--School Library Journal
