Winner of Parent Tested Parent Approved Seal of Approval and Academics’ Choice Smart Book Award.
My Impressions:
This is the 2nd book I have read by author Karen Kilpatrick. The first book, Danz's Message was a beautiful story of realizing your inner beauty, while appreciating your outer beauty-just as you are!Ella's Toys is a wonderful story centered on the joy of sharing and building friendships. This book really captured the selfish desire that is in all of us to horde our things. Luckily for Ella, she learns that sharing her things with others builds relationships and gives a overwhelming sense of happiness to both parties.
Filled with wonderful illustrations that capture the imagination of the young and sucks you into the story. This book is a wonderful addition to the other Pumkinhead books in building character.
