A Wonderful Little Helper for Self-esteem and to combat the effects of bullying...
"This is a lovely story told in a whimsical manner that will alleviate the effects of nasty taunts and meanness by others. It is a story of how Cassie the Giraffe recovered her sense of self and found a loving other who gave her strength to see that the taunts said so much more about the taunt-er, the power of love building self-worth, self-acceptance, and genuine love and support. A story for any age."
