excellent children's book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
A fine book from Patricia Polacco, who is my daughter's (10) favorite children's picture book author.
Wonderful!

Polacco is one of my favorite Children's authors. It is a bonus that she's from here in Michigan and so a lot of her stories make sense from a geographic & cultural perspective. She covers so many great topics in formats that are fun for both kids & adults. If you ever have a chance to hear her speak in person, GO! She's an amazing role model having overcome learning disabilities to become a famous author and illustrator. This book is a great example of how neighborhoods can band together to help each other out and create a more caring and supportive community for all residents. Just a little leadership and a good listener, willing to step out on a limb, can make all the difference. If there were more Hensley's in the world, it would be a better place all around.
Another great book by Patricia Polocco
