Critics Review
”[This book] gives girls a full-throated endorsement to be true to themselves… Empowering.” –Kirkus
“Sensitivity, curiosity, loudness, kindness, and playfulness are also embraced in this leanly hortatory accounting of values.” –Publishers Weekly
“In a bold cartoon style, Chan’s illustrations are bursting with color and life, and she features a glorious array of skin tones, physical abilities, and ages. This unique book that embraces sensitivity and encourages action is highly recommended for school and public libraries.” –School Library Journal
